Start Ten

About the Book

November 30, 2020, at 4:00 P.M., that’s when it all started. Three men, in or approaching Franklin, Tennessee, but miles apart, are signaled by a flash of light that no one else sees at the time, not even those close by. The incidents could have been forgotten, but the three happen to meet, and in WE THREE KINGS, spend the next week together trying to resolve what the flash, and also a peculiar group of supposed Confederate cavalry re-enactors, might mean. The answer for them is that the nation is in danger for the third time in its history, with an implication, since they are the only ones summoned, that they must do something about it. In START TEN, the sequel, the three spend the next four years not only following events in the nation, which as they occur are indicative that the earlier warning is well founded, but also striving to curtail what has been forecast. Novices in the political arena, their efforts are more often confounded and frustrating rather than impactful. But seeds are nonetheless planted. And although there is little apparent affect on the nation, a number of others are enlisted and plans are made, which along with surprising discoveries offer hope for what can follow.
