тАЬSam Hartline is a goddamned psychopath,тАЭ Cecil Jefferys told Ike and Ben. тАЬAnd one hardline
nigger-hater. He was with Jeb Fargo outside Chicago back in тАШ88 and тАШ89."

The day before Ben first met Cecil and Salina, he had visited his brother in a suburb of Chicago. What he
had seen shocked and appalled him. Ben could not believe the change in his older brother.

He had been stopped at a roadblock, refused entrance into the suburbs. тАЬYou gotta stay and fight with

a decent society."

Ben didn't believe what he was hearing. Ben Raines was anything but a screaming liberal, but he knew

brother. He could not believe the change in Carl Raines. He had argued with Carl, trying to reason with
him, to get him to leaveтАФget his family and come with Ben.

тАЬNo way,тАЭ Carl told him. тАЬI'm stayinтАЩ here and protectinтАЩ my home."

Take your choice. Live in the governor's mansion if you like."

тАЬBe niggers in there, eatinтАЩ fried chicken and doinтАЩ the funky-humpy in the governor's office."

Ben had argued on, attempting to change his brother's mind, until a voice from behind him ended it.

тАЬWhy don't you just carry your Jew-lovin', nigger-lovinтАЩ ass on away from here?"

He wore the uniform of a Nazi storm-trooper. A swastika on his sleeve. Jeb Fargo.

The crowd gathering was hostile.

Ben and his brother did not shake hands before Ben left, pushing his way through the crowd.
