The VonKrueger Faction

About the Book

The VonKrueger Faction weaves the story of two men who long to do something daring and exciting—something that is a total secret from everyone. In the summer of 1962, Patrick Collins, an alcoholic, middle-aged real estate broker from Dayton, Ohio, and his friend, Ralph Prinz, decide to take a road trip deep into central Canada. They embark upon a two-week canoeing trip into unchartered northern territory. While deep in the wilderness, Patrick is suddenly and unexpectedly separated from Ralph, who is the experienced canoeist and woodsman. Patrick, who has never been successful in any facet of his life, is then forced to take bold and decisive measures just to survive. After successfully overcoming many basic survival challenges, he is confronted with a faction deeply involved in a diabolical scheme to control and dominate the entire world. Patrick Collins single-handedly musters all of his strength, ingenuity, and cunning to thwart their frighteningly evil and deadly plot. More than four decades later, Patrick Collins, now in rapidly failing health, decides to finally reveal the chilling details behind the story of The VonKrueger Faction—a heart-stopping journey that takes many twists and turns in the Canadian wilderness.
