       THE RUSE BOMBS


       PRELIMINARY JACKET COVER

   Marie Gautier acquires an early racial hatred
   when her mother is killed by a drunk Mexican 
   in Corpus Christi, Texas during WW II. Twenty 
   years later she returns to her birthplace, 
   Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as the principle in a 
   convoluted plot to discredit all Mexicans and 
   avenge her childhood loss. Her lover and friend
   orchestrates the plan from a distance, tuning 
   her talents in a performance whose outcome is 
   known only to a sinister group called "The 
   Consilium". Caught in a maelstrom of love, 
   racial hatred, revenge, and fear, Marie grasps 
   for  reasons that crest and drag her beneath a 
   family secret she is unable to accept.
