Potomac

By R. Marion Troy

Potomac is a novel of how America has lived with a history that was founded on blood, deception, courage, and pride. It is also the story of the nation's first African American family to occupy the White House and whose love for each other and for those things all Americans hold most sacred - children, land, honor, and trust are left swaying in the balance of hatred, deceit and blinding ambition. The characters in Potomac are faced with the impossible task of renegotiating terms and conditions left unfinished for more than 500 years - but to fail at this task means more than just the tragic death of an American dream - as the losses are more than philosophical - they are only too human. As the book races to its conclusion, you may ask whether or not it is important for "good" to triumph over "evil" as much as it may be necessary to define those terms within the American context of how we independently pursue "life, liberty, and happiness."
