It's 2010. In North Georgia, a 44-year-old owner of a convenience store in the County Seat town of Clearmont is a divorced man with a shady past. Disillusioned with his life without a purpose, he sells his store in its prime location to an Indonesian Cartel. They remodel it into one like their other 250 stores scattered throughout the South. Harrold is surprised when he learns the buyers are Muslims. The six-year-old daughter of the Muslim family that moves into the store's annex is killed in a tragic hit-and-run accident on the highway in front of the store. Law authorities never discover the killer. Harrold Holden, now Clearmont's mayor, learns the killer's identity but cannot reveal the secret. In an unpredictable event, Saudi Arabian oil money builds a large Islamic complex near Clearmont City. The result is an invasion of thousands of Muslims into the region's traditional culture. The result is catastrophic! Bloodshed follows. This culture clash has severe repercussions on traditional Christianity and especially on Mayor Holden and his new religious beliefs. Some might say his life has a heartbreaking ending in 2045. Others say just the opposite. What do you say?
