Corrupt Austin police detective Danny Phelps--mid-forties, overly confident, and a charming smartass--chooses a path of power, money, and authority and embodies symbols of fear--badge, weapons, sirens. The experience of a horrific childhood incident inspires Phelps to pursue law enforcement and with honorable intentions initially, until egotistical passions and lust for power seduce him to abuse his detective’s position of authority.Through manipulations, he steals money and drugs from street dealers and thugs. Unaware of the DNA mutating within him, Phelps progressively evolves into the prototype for the next-generation human with remarkable abilities.His inner guide emerges from his consciousness to echo his true mission and ultimate destiny--a completely different direction than the one Phelps has aligned with. Indifferent to money or power, his inner guide repeatedly appears to Phelps as various disguised personas--a homeless man, a businessman, a bar back, a sign spinner--and remains invisible to others around Phelps, including his detective partner, Chaz Dawg, a mid-thirties Jamaican. Still, Phelps never hesitates to dive into necessary action to help a fellow officer down or his resolve for truth in missing children’s cases.Off hours, Phelps and Chaz hang out at the local Gentleman’s Club for drinks or shoot pool at Phelps’s gorgeous house on Lake Travis. Phelps and Chaz work together as detectives to solve crimes as well as being partners in crimes, one of which goes terribly wrong. The aftermath takes Phelps to the edges of his conscience and into one of his darker hours. His astral body travels into the woods to find a poignant piece of evidence that Phelps submits to a forensic DNA specialist for clarification. The DNA evidence suggests metamorphoses.Exotic dancer Terra Asher, twenties, pushes her flirting with Phelps slightly beyond the borders of her job description. When Terra questions Phelps to share his experiences in matters of love, Phelps reveals that when in love, he was his happiest, but his love was lost in the kiss of death.Suddenly, he finds himself in an alternate reality where he meets his soulmate for a brief moment of pure bliss. Abruptly, he is yanked back into this third-dimensional reality. While his inner guide rides with Phelps during a leisurely Sunday drive, he imparts greater truths to Phelps, particularly about the hidden governing reality on Earth that controls humanity in a paradigm of chaos and fear. At the edge of the meadow ahead, Phelps sees past the veils that separate dimensions, and enigmatic creatures become visible.With a gun in hand, Phelps pursues them into the woods and witnesses a scene more sadistic than he can imagine, one that challenges even his cop-exposed desensitized perceptions of reality. Does he have the courage to intervene? In time? Will Phelps rise above his own terror to change the impending outcome?The inner guide reveals the true nature of humanity to the distraught Phelps, the most alarming and deepest esoteric knowledge that will shock the world--knowledge hidden and protected by the oppressors. He discovers that his inner guide is here to fulfill the highest destiny: the liberation of humanity and through Phelps as his personal vehicle to do so.
