Eddy's Current

Satan reaches up and plants his special seed just beneath the surface of America’s heartland. Political and media extremists don't notice the young shoot as it begins to grow. They’re busy with their perpetual banquet, serving comfort food to each other and to select members of the clergy. The menu includes every imaginable combination of hog trough fare for the elite. The quality of the food doesn't matter—it's somewhere between near–rotten leftovers and cheap junk food. The huge servings fatten the chosen just fine. The resulting muck fertilizes the U.S. heartland, providing the nutrients necessary to grow the soul of Satan's exceptional infant. The special baby boy, christened Tyler Lee Peterson, reaches age twenty then descends steadily for another twenty–three years deep into a personal and professional living nightmare. His world is dark and he is desperate. He is out of options so he gambles. Peterson bets that the far right in America will grant him salvation without works and then cast him to stardom. His gamble pays off. The country’s power pendulum swings down from the far left to its lowest possible point, grabs Peterson, pulls him out of the mire, continues toward the extreme right, and hurtles him to the pinnacle of world power. Crafted by politicians, promoted by media and embraced by clergy, the new American norm — two political extremes without an average — settles in and is perfectly comfortable. The disturbed aren't bothered by the disturbance. Peterson fits in. Into this madness of extremes that produces Tyler Peterson, Eddy's Current thrusts a small and diverse group of Americans, each of whom seems to have been set aside from the extremism that plagues their country. This band battles against all odds to restore their fellow citizens' freedoms and their country's independence. You will be inspired by their fight. Eddy's Current has been described by reviewers to be a book of intrigue, filled with suspense—a political and religious thriller that will stay with you long after you read it. "You will think about it and lose sleep over it for a long, long time."**
