Discrimination, bank-robbery, hitchhiking, and false divinity . . .



What appears at first to be a chance meeting between Jackson and an elderly professor develops into a very close relationship. Jackson, who is an analyst with
the F.B.I., experiences violence and fierce opposition on the road, during a vacation intended to be from Seattle, Washington to the end of State Highway 1,
Florida.

The two are driven together by circumstance, shared ideals and mutual respect, but their initial antipathy and entirely disparate lives create disharmony. Caught
in a brutal attack, Jackson is saved, and owes his life to Professor Jeremiah T. Brown.

By gaining the professor's confidence, Jackson discovers
a plan to redistribute a huge amount of government
funds, and his appreciation of the professor clashed
with his profession as a researcher for the F.B.I.
Meanwhile the Western Division Assistant Director at
the Seattle F.B.I. Headquarters, Mathew Fay, as a
break from his usual professional role, has taken on
the task of investigating the professor and his
strange behavior, in particular the fact that he holds up banks.

With the help of a computer hacker named Christopher
Williams III and a bureaucrat named Chance Harnisch
the professor comes close to carrying out his fantastic
plans. Things begin to unravel when the bank
holdup to cover the seed capital to pay a bribe goes
badly wrong. The F.B.I. skilfully manages to
substitute a fake virus., so that the main redistribution
of government funds will not go ahead. All is
not lost, however, and the final denouement is a
satisfying resolution to this amazing story.
