Imminent Demise is a modern-day novel set in a small, fictional Ohio city. It is a love story about two young people who meet in a garden and are propelled into an unexpected sequence of events involving murder, deception, and a deepening love that binds them in an unbreakable relationship. This is not a story of super heroes using their super powers to eradicate evil, but one where an ordinary man falls in love with a beautiful girl with an uncommon spirit and an unhealthy connection with another man full of jealousy and egotism. The story takes many twists and turns and is the author's attempt at an old-fashioned novel about regular, every-day people who fight for each other within the context of a realistic setting of a normal American situation.
