About this ebook

The Big Guy loves his family, money and democracy. Undone by the results of the 2008 Presidential election, he taps a group of like-minded men to reclaim their version of America. As they build a scheme to disturb and disrupt, the Big Guy also faces turbulence closer to home and must take responsibility for his past actions. Closely guarded family secrets begin to surface when his wife Charlotte stops self-medicating to numb her emotions. And when eighteen-year-old Megan votes for the first time, she awakens to the dissonance between her father's expectations and her own dreams for the future.

Dark, funny and prescient, The Unfolding explores the implosion of the dream and how we arrived in today's divided world.
