Description
In an unexpected turn of events, 17-year-old Neil Baker finds himself in the presence of someone he believes is his grandfather, known to him as Gramps. During a back-and-forth discussion about religion and philosophy, Neil begins questioning why the world feels chaotic if there truly is an all-loving Creator. This conversation, while challenging Gramps' beliefs, ultimately shifts Neil's path toward a medical career.
Along the way, Neil meets Annie O'Brien, a brilliant and beautiful college coed whose strict Christian beliefs create tension in their relationship.
Thus begins an antagonistic on-and-off love drama that leads the reader through a series of bizarre circumstances with unexpected twists and turns driven by hidden problems from their past. With trials involving deception and tragedy, Annie and Neil eventually suspect they are linked in a way neither imagined. When their relationship falters, a decision over an ultimate betrayal has to be made, with a big question standing in the way.
How does one accept a reality that is not what it seems?

Person
Greg Murphy grew up in Halifax, Nova Scotia in the fifties and sixties. A free spirit vagabond at heart, he began hitch-hiking around Canada in his early teens. A quest for adventure in his early twenties took him to Amsterdam where he became friends with a professional photographer whose influence and tutelage inspired him to document his worldwide travels on 35mm film.
He worked as a fashion photographer, professional scuba diving instructor, international jewelery wholesaler and documentarian, capturing people and places on film while exploring various cultures in a rapidly changing world.
His eclectic lifestyle brought him in touch with a cornucopia of characters and events that inspired this book.
