Jonathan Poe is a philosophy professor at Harvard, who is wracked with survivor’s guilt after losing his wife and two daughters in a tragic accident. On the brink of suicide, he inadvertently commits an "ethical" crime that sparks a life-altering since he no longer fears death, is he now free to do the “dirty work” of society that no one else will do?
Poe carefully stalks his next victims, but things go askew and he yearns for a new route to happiness -- only to learn that it is likely too late to escape the consequences of his earlier actions. When these begin to threaten not only his own safety, but the lives of those he holds most dear, Poe must decide once and for all what course of action might bring about the “greatest good.”
The Art of Good and Evil Reviews
-
I was totally psyched to have the opportunity to read an advance copy shared by the publisher of Lee McIntyre latest, THE ART OF GOOD AND EVIL.
In the shocking first chapter when mild mannered Professor of Philosophy Jonathan Poe loses his wife and two daughters in a plane crash, you feel like you are starting at the end – when really it is just the masterful beginning of Professor Poe’s unexpected spiral down the rabbit hole on a suicidal murder spree questioning right and wrong, good and evil, and who is or is not a criminal.
This entertaining page-turner takes the reader on a moral see-saw adventure that had me appalled then thoughtful then cheering.
Give yourself time to read this because once you start it is near impossible to put it down.
