More cunning men than these threaten to bring down the driven inventor. University-trained experts constantly challenge self-taught Gimble. Where does his genius come from? Professors suspect he uses mind tricks learned in secret societies. Jealousies simmer as TR designs large oil refineries. His success at cracking the process to create shale gasoline infuriates men of the petroleum industry. TR teaches his family secrecy for survival. His fraternal brothers are nowhere in sight when he needs assistance. How do his loved ones overcome threats in this odd existence? Who plots against them in the shadows? Humor and fortitude help the Gimbles forge unexpected alliances.T R Gimble’s passionate, risky endeavors burst through barriers as he zeros in to create the future with the gift of the Magic Eye.
