"I am sending you out like sheep among wolves," Rabbi Jesus told his disciples. But what meaning could those words have for Jeremiah Abrahams, a rabbi's son born in 1985? In the immediate term, perhaps very little, yet gradually as his career advances they would amount to a prophetic declaration crucial to his life. His father, Rabbi Aaron Abrahams, and a Christian priest, Father Matthew, give warning of vicious forces gathering around him. As Jeremiah begins to advance up the greasy pole of American politics, one by one the wolves emerge from inside and outside the US: first, a questionable cardinal, followed by a 'President from Hell', then a dubious British Foreign Secretary contaminates international relations. Jeremiah, who eventually becomes US President in 2028 allies himself to the wisdom of his father and the priest Matthew in an effort to counter such awesome threats.
