ACCORDING TO HISTORIANS, AMERICA BEGAN DEPARTING FROM ITS JUDEO-CHRISTIAN ROOTS IN 1967. IT TOOK ONE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN TO SHAKE A MAN FREE FROM HIS OBSESSION WITH LIVING IN THE PAST, AND ANOTHER TO PLUNGE A MAN INTO A WORLD OF DARKNESS AND GREED.
Even Light Cannot Escape is a cautionary tale about a handful of interesting characters placing bets on better ways of treating one's neighbor in cozy little towns on the Kentucky bourbon trail.
Calvin Willett waterskied at night on Herrington Lake in his late teens. He dropped the rope and slammed into a dock. Lucky to be alive, that was the last day he tasted bourbon and the first day of his quest to save himself and the world that had become increasingly depraved since the late sixties. Then he met Celine Oliver, who looked like the actress Brigitte Bardot, only more beautiful, and he took her in with her own set of hovering demons.
With the fear of his high-end tailor business being hacked, Marcel Sutherland hired Frank Romine, a whiz at chess and computers, to protect the company's secret database. Coincidentally, Romine took an apartment next door to Celine Oliver, and he hacked into her past to find she'd vanished off any grid for five years. Having an obsessive mind, he couldn't rest until he figured out why. He wasn't alone. Sutherland's wealthy brother-in-law, Brock Skinner, was overly curious too.
It didn't take long for Romine and Skinner to get caught up in a seamy web of blackmail, deceit, and murder. In a portrayal of modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah, will nonbelievers be destroyed and the righteous saved?
