SCAMMING GOD Synopsis

In 1851, only ten per cent of the people of the North wanted to abolish slavery. A year later, all that changed. Uncle Tom’s Cabin had become a worldwide bestseller. The reason for its popularity was simple. It portrayed blacks as fully human.

Rather than humanize a race, SCAMMING GOD humanizes a savior. It begins in 1976 and vibrates with the drift and thrust of the ambitions of our era and how they effect a young woman who gets knocked up by a con man, then gets even by pulling the mask off his Enron-like swindle, corporate law and conservatism.

Advance reaction to SCAMMING GOD.

SCAMMING GOD’s heroine starts out young and vulnerable, meets a charismatic criminal and by the end has become a truly wise, well-rounded and strong person. Sara gave me the courage to end my bad relationship. -Sara Kaldveer

SCAMMING GOD is the novel about journalism I always wanted to write. –Molly Ivins

This novel cuts through the interlocking scams that define our moral universe. –Kurt Vonnegut

What makes this novel work is the author’s ability to get us to see ourselves in each character. No one is immune from becoming the victim of a scam. The page-turning plot reveals how we are all looking for the same things in life, how we are willing to compromise our better judgment for unconditional love and acceptance. SCAMMING GOD works on every level–the personal, the political, the philosophical and the spiritual–and poses the troubling, timely question, is Jesus human or divine? Its author places his faith in an experience-based approach and, ultimately, in the wisdom of the American people. – Marla Peters.
