Published Jan. 21, 2016

(Vendemmia Press) In this novel, set in a near future ravaged by natural disaster and terrorism, religious conservatives are working to forge an officially Judeo-Christian America. Opposing them is Bryce Jones, the billionaire behind Ingersoll, the largest gated community dedicated to a religion-free version of human progress. His attempt to organize nonbelievers in their own defense begs the question, how different are they from those they oppose? Sheres is the author of the acclaimed novel Keeping Gideon. He is a former U.S. government foreign affairs and intelligence senior executive.
