North Arrow Press is thrilled to announce the release of The Compass Room, the highly anticipated sequel to the Kirkus-starred Friendship Games, by Mark James.

The war was over before it even began — but the real battle was just beginning. In The Compass Room, Vice President George "Daddy Longlegs" Wartmann fights to hold the country together as Washington unravels. Abroad, Turkish ambitions, European unrest, and a shattered U.S. military threaten to redraw the global order. From the corridors of the Capitol to the streets of Paris to the skies above the Middle East, this is a story of power, betrayal, and survival in a world where yesterday's rules no longer apply.

For readers of Friendship Games, this long-awaited continuation of the Wartmann Series pushes the story into darker, uncharted territory — where the aftermath of war may be more dangerous than the war itself.

The Compass Room is available now on Amazon in paperback and Kindle, and free to read in Kindle Unlimited. Wider distribution is coming soon!
