As his grip on reality loosens, blackout periods now taking place at regular intervals, Theo cant help but wonder if the political pressure is costing him his mindjust as it cost his mother hers. If hes going to escape his inner demons, hell need to place his trust in a greater power. A power like the president of the United States of America.
