Special Agent Blair of the FBI has the numbing job of a bureaucrat and the soul of a cowboy. He is about to walk away from the safe world of paper-pushing to risk his life infiltrating an armed group of white supremacists called Wrath.
Gen-Xer Lauren Miller is an articulate, ironic, and unwaveringly liberal journalist investigating a bombing that Wrath supposedly masterminded. She is also determined to discover how people who have never met a Jew in their lives can be so obsessed with Jews as to want them dead.
Drawn together to investigate an appalling hate crime, these two seeming opposites discover that they may have more in common than a passion for justice—perhaps even a shared heritage.
"With keen humor and fine characterizations, [this] multigenerational saga explores the nature of American identity….Both on the large scale and the small, an absorbing chronicle of the American character."
