Suffering jobless despair and witnessing the sudden death of his young friend, Flip watches a two-minute video of a sage and is filled with ineffable joy and fearlessness. Flip realizes the man is Hab, a hot dog vendor he knew 40 years ago in his hometown of Pittsburgh. During his quest to be with Hab, Flip experiences love and terror from characters of his past. Fletcher, an Iraq war vet driven by PTSD and fundamental Christianity, is also searching for Hab. Fletcher believes Hab is the anti-Christ and vows to kill him. The video goes super viral: billions of people instantly experience a profound spiritual awakening. Drastic societal changes occur around the world. An epic march on Tehran causes theocratic Iran to lose control of its people hurtling the world toward a nuclear holocaust. Mohsen, an Iranian SAVAK agent is given an order: detonate a 10 megaton nuclear suitcase bomb in Washington D.C. Aaron and Meira, members of Israel's Mosad, prepare to answer this aggression with a similar attack on Mecca. A battle is joined between those who embrace the catalytic wildfire of enlightened consciousness and the committed inhibitors of change.
