About this ebook

Winston Parks, a middle-aged black man, has given voice to disenfranchised Americans through the alias, INCOGNITO. Through the unfettered power of social media, his lone voice has become a patriotic battle cry. Now, millions—Incogs they call themselves—have mobilized to exorcise the ill of inequality from the nation. ‘Us not I’, they cry out for justice!

The power players . . . Politicians, Wall Street and the like—those usual suspects—tremble in fear at their loss of power and money. An election draws near! The Incogs are poised to sway millions more to their cause by electing the charismatic and handsome Hector Vega to the U.S. Senate. With time running out, the power players are determined to do anything to stop that—and him!

The future of America rests in the hands of a few, who are ready to silence the voice of one, who has empowered millions! Will America rise and fulfill its solemn creed—That All Men Are Created Equal? Or will America's newest messiah become yesterday's forgotten martyr?
