Six old Midwestern buddies have moved apart since 9-11, but they reunite to go to Washington DC to locate a brother who as a lobbyist has entangled himself with the highest echelons of power. As they look for him, they also learn about what has happened to their beloved country in the intervening years between 2001 and now. Some "acorns" will remain buried, but the ones that are dug up will reveal a devious scheme to loot America and what happens when everyone's hand is out for a helping. Left unchecked, the "acorns" that remain may grow into an ugly future if not for the efforts of Danny Golding and his friends. | Squirrel's Run by David Thoveline, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
