Complex, densely textured literary novel, constructed somewhat roughly around a tornado, a mountain lion attack, and several other alternative potentialities, set in Cathar County, Nebraska sometime in the recent past, or present, or perhaps the future. Featuring characters named Faith and A. Jacks and Arch and Parrish and May and Hanratty and Helen and Horton, and others too many to mention, none of whom are less real than any other reality. Faith seeks recovery of a twin captured by a big cat. Arch seeks an elusive frequency. A. Jacks seeks to re-construct a palace collapsed by cyclone. Parrish seeks deliverance in the coming apocalypse. A two million dollar accidental death insurance benefit hangs in the balance. Stream of consciousness constructs a beginning, a middle, and an end.
