Luther's War

De: Brian Jorgensen

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Luther’s War is inspired by Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment. Unlike this classic novel, Luther’s War plays off the mental anguish several characters experience. Luther Kelly, an ex-Air Force OSI investigator has fled to Alaska, thinking himself a murderer. He lives on the edge of mental collapse, riddled with guilt. Until a woman from his past shows up to reveal he was innocent and to take him back to a broken society. But then his war begins when his saving grace in the wilderness, Britton Bush who merely goes by Hemingway, psychologically suffers over dreams in which he believes he will soon kill a group of young men. A new acquaintance, Patrick Kirchner who goes by Kitch, thinks himself superior and then suffers terribly once he witnesses Hemingway actually commit the murders. What causes Kirchner’s greatest suffering is when in the face of ultimate justice Hemingway is allowed to walk free while another acquaintance, Winston Ratliff seemingly pays the price with his life. In the face of unjust justice, in Kirchner’s mind, he declares war on all that is good.
