This page turning thriller takes place in two time periods and is packed with political corruption, greed, murder, and even an inter-century love affair. It was a finalist for the prestigious Montaigne Medal award for thought provoking literature. Time travel is central to the story, but its true genre is "political and religious literary fiction," rather than pure "science fiction." This is a fast moving mystery story about broken politics and the future of the Earth, a multi-century whodunnit with theological overtones. And for people who like literary puzzles there is an "Old Testament" Exodus allegory, with biblical clues to be found in some of the key character's names.
Corpalism is an exciting and often funny mixture of timely political commentary that moves in a believable way, between fact and fiction.
The book begins in a dystopian world – a casually dark and callous future wrought by unchecked corporate greed.
The timeline moves back and forth 20 years, using inter connected characters and storylines. Situational humour lightens the mood and the characters are well-crafted, individual and interesting; ranging from the cynically evil, through the surprisingly likeable to the positively evangelical.
Corpalism remonstrates against the evil of corporate greed, puts forward a credible alternative to the duopoly of current party politics and offers hope of an alternative future if we act now.
A unique experience – a page turner with a message.
Three weeks before a crucial senatorial election, a man is gunned down execution-style in a D.C. office. Police are quick to call it a case of robbery gone bad, but Frank Miles suspects something far more sinister behind the murder of his business partner.
Washington's most feared image maker, Frank's ruthless media manipulation has earned him countless admirers...and just as many enemies. Now, for the first time in his life, Frank's met his match in a shadowy schemer as clever as himself--but far more lethal.
As the body count rises, Frank becomes the U.S. Attorney's chief suspect--and a cunning killer's next target. From the underground tunnels networking Capitol Hill to the dome high above, his race for the truth--and his life--will bring him face-to-face with power at its deadliest extremes--where winning isn't everything...it's the only thing.
With his debut novel, L.A. Times bestselling author Robert Ellis raises the stakes in a heart pounding thriller set in Washington that feels so inside and so twisted it reeks of the darkest truth.

“Some say that every great truth is painfully revealed. Perhaps this is so, perhaps not. All I can say is that, at least in my case, it didn’t happen that way. If the Truth was ever revealed to me, it happened one morning, when I was at home and about to hang out the washing on my balcony. Back then, it wasn’t the least bit painful, but rather surprising and reassuring, like bumping into an old friend in a foreign city.”
Every town keeps secrets. Stored up for generations, they grow like moss in dark corners: in the damp cellars of houses or locked rooms and in awkward silences. These secrets are sometimes banal and sometimes terrible, but they are always present in a small community where everything is known but nobody knows anything.
In 1961, Rogelio Villanueva, who had been missing for more than twenty years, returned to his hometown to take over the family business. In 1967, he was found in his bath, having bled to death. There was a note with a cryptic message in the sink and he had two unusual purple discolorations under his chin.
