What makes a hero? Are they born or made?
Do they have a choice?
These are the questions that are asked and answered in the
novel, In Search of the Rabbit Man. 1968 is a time of change
and loss and discovery: of finding new identities, new strengths
and new voices.
The author notes, This is a story of how people overcome
disappointment and loss and find a new beginning. It also shows
how fear, rumors, and myths can dictate the human and social
behavior of a community.
The story opens in Dallas, Texas the week after the assassination
of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., when a community is trying to
recover and not revolt. A badly decomposed body is found in
a new, middle class neighborhood and the citizens are trying
hard to overcome the stereotype that is applied to all black
neighborhoods that have faced the same situation.
One young man, A twelve year old, goes on a quest to solve the
mystery and find the answers to the myth that has haunted the
old community and is being repeated in the new. His quest leads
him to revelations of past and present events and the implications
that threaten the future.
