This controversial political mystery examines the issues of race and socio-economic conditions that exist in our country today. Told through the words of Wirth Dunhill, a confused Republican Senator from Boston; Glea, his enigmatic wife; and Moorehouse, his radical brother; the novel mirrors the political scene and divisiveness we are currently witnessing in America. A black man, heralded by some as a prophet, arrives during a violent storm to first save a troubled city, and then proceed to lead a nationwide renaissance of urban black America. In the process, Americans rediscover the truths that gave the country its beginning. A bizarre and unexpected series of events and an internationally connected underground sect, lay the groundwork, and supply the backing for this mysterious leader's journey to power on a most unexpected path. Intertwined in the plot, you'll explore our political system, the media, our deepest racial thoughts, and how these affect our lives, and possibly our future.
