If the cover of "Sacred Trust", created by New Hampshire's own Mike Marland, doesn't clue you in, it won't take long to realize that this novel is written as a vicarious homage to New Hampshire's own ongoing battle over the controversial "Northern Pass" project and other similar projects.

This Saturday [6/23/18] from 11am to 3pm author, former State Senator and 1994 Democratic Gubernatorial nominee Wayne D. King will be attending the White Mountain Regional Airport's Fly-in in Whitefield. He will be available to answer questions and sign books.

"Sacred Trust" is the tale of a rollicking campaign of civil disobedience against a private powerline, pitting nine unlikely environmental patriots, calling themselves "The Trust", against the "Granite Skyway" transmission line and its powerful, well-connected consortium of investors.

King adroitly weaves a story with a familiar ring . . . the clash of ordinary people confronting money and power in an epic battle to protect the land they love.

With an obvious deep fondness for both the people and the land, King weaves a fast-paced tale filled with both real and fictional stories from the political world and life in the Granite State. In a rich tableau that includes sometimes hilarious and sometimes hair-raising stories of Senators driving North in a Southbound Interstate lane; Doctors sneaking a pregnant Llama into a hospital surgical ward for ACL surgery; A bear and a boy eating from the same blueberry patch atop Mount Cardigan as his father, the Ranger, watches helplessly from the firetower, and more.

"Sacred Trust" is a hilarious and vicarious, high voltage campaign to stop the "Granite Skyway" leading the reader through the hijinks of The Trust, and the series of choices we all are currently confronted in the emerging "Age of Electricity".

For each of the members of The Trust it is a sacred campaign fought against an impending legacy of steel towers and scarred lands - an existential threat to an entire way of life. The Trust is all that stands between the people and their worst fears . . . and they are willing to pay any price to prevail.
