Against the Current

Against the Current explores the evil behind the need to manipulate others, and the inner strength of goodness that compels some of us to stand up to that evil.

Four years of planning for his freedom, and one heroic moment, sets off a ticking time bomb of massive destruction in the quiet town of Mt. Clarkton, Iowa. With the help of a kindred spirit, Jeff Peyton is forced to play one last winner-take-all game against master manipulator, Matt Sinclair. Jeff needs to win this game, not only for his own survival, but to protect everyone he loves.

Evil comes in many forms and wears many faces. The power hungry manipulator will stop at nothing to keep his power, and to keep his golden ticket from rising up against him. The victim is in some ways as calculating as the bully, and willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of others. What begins as a story of constant abuse and the struggle to break free, turns into a psychological suspense thriller where not all is what it seems.
