Rabbit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798868530098)

RABBIT: Jake and Rachel just wanted to downsize - to simplify. They found a little historic house, in an amazing location. It just needed a little work. But their renovations uncover a secret - a big secret.

Could there be a single point of origin for our modern-day "conspiracies"? The curiously suspicious neighbors are certainly interested. It's a lot to unravel as they race to piece it all together. As our lexicon evolves with terms like "narrative" and "conspiracy theory", Jake and Rachel face more risks than they know. Are they crazy? Have they found the source of it all? Rabbit twists through our country's legendary conspiracies in this thought-provoking and inspiring tale, bringing daily observations into a new light. Is it real or just a distraction? One thing is certain: Something is up with that Rabbit.

Whetstone's take on the country's best-known conspiracies unwinds in this unexpected tale of a couple who simply want to remodel a house. From "saving the hardwoods" to the mysteries beneath, RABBIT leads you through the briars. If you pay attention, there's an occasional 'Easter Egg' - fitting for a story called "Rabbit."

Whetstone provokes the reader to think along, think ahead, and consider daily perceptions in a new light. RABBIT will keep you chasing the storyline, digging deeper into the characters and the motivations that lure them down their pathways. The pace shifts - slowing, then scurrying off, pulling you with it. A touch of literal, sometimes sarcastic humor adds to the flavor.

"A page turner!" - "Love Gus the dog!" - "Eye opening!"

A BOOK CLUB FAVORITE. "Rabbit" drives conversation and contemplation.

Destined to become a new classic, Jake and Rachel are loveable and relatable,

and Gus, their puppy, adds some adorable fluff.

Whetstone creates stories from his life experiences, which are incredibly diverse: designer, communicator, author, musician, auto restorer, carpenter. Maybe he's a "renaissance man." Perhaps a "jack of all trades." A small-town boy with an farm background, he's picked up rocks, put up hay, worked cattle, and brought in a harvest. Professionally, he's shared conference tables with some of the nation's top CEOs. And, he's logged miles in the tour buses of top entertainers. He's produced projects for Fortune-level companies and seen the inner-workings of the biggest corporations. Whetstone has also written a music album and performed stand-up comedy in local clubs. As a designer and communicator, he's created numerous narratives and story lines - promoting products, companies, and ideas. The basis of "Rabbit" comes from his observations of our captive media and the actual distractions he sees play out through popular culture.
