Abraham's Burden (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781439206584)

As dramatic as it is compelling, Joseph N. Crew explores the intricacies of human behavior in Abraham's Burden with a brilliant cadence. Crew examines with unique insight the role our past endlessly plays in the formation of our present day prejudices. Newly elected congresswoman Helen Sparks and her lover go missing, and the authorities believe Charlie Abraham, a Native American on the wrong side of Helen's political agenda, is involved. While the media zeros in on Charlie, the real killer's half brother plants evidence to ensure Charlie will be charged with the crime. As an ethnically divided jury struggles with their deliberations, the body of a headless woman is discovered in the nearby woods. The public is convinced it is their popular congresswoman. The brothers know the truth, but familial ties break and a strange justice is served, and redemption becomes possible for the wronged.
