Sleeping Gods

About the Book

A young man sets out on a quest to find his biological father. Along the way, he falls in with a plucky band of environmental activists, who call themselves eco-ops, operating in the wilds of Orange County. Each one among them possesses unique abilities. And one is The Dreamer—an individual with a singular destiny: to weave, at a sub-conscious level, the totality of present and past world events. The murder of a prominent industrialist and Orange County developer catapults eco-ops into motion. Investigating the murder while trying to stay one step ahead of the authorities, eco-ops uncovers a nefarious plot to overthrow the government. A cynical, wealthy televangelist is engaged in a power grab to implement his sociopathic agenda and impose it on unsuspecting millions. Can eco-ops expose the plot before he and his minions can close the deal? Sleeping Gods is a mystical adventure thriller combining action and reflection, humor and pathos. It finds unlikely heroes and dastardly villains on a collision course in a world where reality is inextricably intertwined with the magical and mythical.
