Synopsis/Details
"By God" is a compelling thriller that dives into the complexities of cultural identities, misconceptions, and the struggle for understanding and acceptance in the modern world. Set in the pulsating heart of a community centre held hostage by a man who’s anything but what he seems, we're introduced to a diverse cast of characters whose lives intertwine under the most harrowing circumstances, each drawn with depth and complexity that reveals the multifaceted nature of humanity's capacity for both good and evil. This is a deep dive into the dark side of a polarised world, a mirror held up to the fractures and fault lines that divide us, and a beacon of hope that in understanding and compassion lies the path to healing. "By God" is a raw, intense, and ultimately hopeful narrative that challenges readers to look beyond the surface and question their own perceptions and biases. It's a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the human condition and the intricate tapestry of our shared humanity.
