Ver Sacrum, or, Heaven Help Us All

By W E Smith

Summer, 1990. War looms in the Persian Gulf, but the veterans Marj Llewellyn treats at a Washington D.C. clinic still struggle to come clean of traumas they suffered in Vietnam. The enigmatic Gary Devers arrives with news that Charles Pinckney, a model of PTSD recovery, has gone missing, and a series of uncanny events disturbs the placid calm of Arlington National Cemetery. With Gary's help Marj enters the world of the Gathering, a tribal society of bicycle messengers, to solve the interlocking riddles. Ver Sacrum is a meditation on the tragic consequences of violence, and the redemptive power of love and brotherhood.
