Joe Stanton awakes... and begins frantically searching for a daughter he doesn't have. Who is Lorna Gwin and why is Joe so determined to find her? The trail quickly leads this Episcopal priest and his girlfriend, Ella Tollefson, on a quest as they discover Joe is not the first man to hallucinate about Lorna Gwin. Will Joe and Ella figure out what is going on in time to prevent a global disaster from occurring?
I love the characters of Ella and Joe! Kenneth G. Bennett does a marvelous job at crafting characters who are so likable that it is easy to suspend disbelief and just go along for the ride. I suspect, however, that EXODUS 2022 will be quite divisive due to the political and religious undertones that permeate every aspect of the storyline.
EXODUS 2022 is an ambitious science fiction thriller. Kenneth G. Bennett explores the connection between humans and their environment, focusing on the intelligence of whales in particular. Readers who enjoy environmental themes will relish EXODUS 2022 as Kenneth G. Bennett keeps the reader guessing as to just how all the pieces will finally come together.
Joe Stanton is in agony. Out of his mind over the death of
his young daughter. Unable to contain his grief, Joe loses
control in public, screaming his daughter's name and
causing
a huge scene at a hotel on San Juan Island in Washington
State.
Thing is, Joe Stanton doesn't have a daughter. Never did.
And when the authorities arrive they blame the 28-year-
old's
outburst on drugs. What they don't yet know is that others
up and down the Pacific coast-from the Bering Sea to the
Puget Sound-are suffering identical, always fatal mental
breakdowns.
With the help of his girlfriend, Joe struggles to unravel
the meaning of the hallucination destroying his mind. As
the
couple begins to perceive its significance-and Joe's role
in
a looming global calamity-they must also outwit a
billionaire weapons contractor bent on exploiting Joe's
newfound understanding of the cosmos, and outlast the time
bomb ticking in Joe's brain.
