About This Book

Just five days before Election Tuesday, the nation learns of Charles Dewitt Heubner's assassination. As the charismatic leader of the Church of Divine Destiny, a neo-Nazi group, Heubner had created and nurtured a culture of intolerance toward Blacks, Hispanics, Jews and homosexuals, leaving a trail of blood in its wake. His election to the presidency was to be the crowning achievement of a vicious career. Violence begets violence and more blood is spilled before the awful truth is discovered.

At the core of Because They Were lies a sense of family and of national unity -- a sense that all Americans are relatives, connected by the bonds of blood and brotherhood.

This timely and captivating tale of love, of hate and of family unity, bound together by imaginative prose and real-life dialogue, will bring the reader closer to his/her own roots. All the characters are as real as life itself. The reader will love some and hate others…but will forget none of them.
