Blue Plains: A Novel

By David Markison

Blue Plains is a fictional account of a modern-day discovery made in a Washington, D.C. thicket of an important memorial that became a historical artifact which spans generations, going back to the World War II era. Its discovery spawned contextual questions and cover-ups on multiple levels, all the way up to the highest arenas of federal politics and political figures. Ultimately, the main character - who had been intricately involved with the memorial's original disposition - gets caught up in its multi-dimensional web and becomes a central figure in an unlikely political firestorm and thriller. Blue Plains demonstrates the corrupt lengths that high-ranking officials will go to in order to protect and preserve power, and reiterates that age-old theme, in varying degrees, which has clearly resonated from notorious twentieth-century leaders of Germany and Russia, and before. The novel is replete with spell-binding twists and turns - including the espionage activities of central characters, deep state efforts to undermine and disparage truth-seekers and even its own brand of collusion claims - which will keep readers interested and guessing right up to its startling and revealing conclusion. Central to the core of Blue Plains also runs many relatable, deep-seated familial ties, truths and emotions that will spark within all of us the importance of those relationships and how they must never be taken for granted.
