The year is 1919. The McNaughton Corporation is the pinnacle of American industry. They built airships that crossed the seas. Guns that won the Great War.

But something is rotten at the heart of Evesden and one man must uncover its dark secret before it all goes up in flames.

The Family Doctor Speaks
He couldn't believe what he was asked. At his medical school interview, Dr. Robert Jackson, Jr. remembers being asked his feelings about abortion, which being pro-life meant he was against. Little did he know he would journey a pro-life pilgrimage as a Christian doctor not only caring for patients' medical needs, but in speaking the truth in love against abortion. His medical testimony and patient stories embody his new book, The Family Doctor Speaks - The Truth About Life, where he describes becoming a Christian doctor in Manning, South Carolina during the early Roe vs. Wade generation. Over the years, he continued to strengthen his pro-life stance and became a doctor counseling patients with Christian principles of child-raising. Abortion statistics and its contrast to scriptural truths the book presents, but the stories of lives touched by Robert's pro-life guidance in love are most impactful in the battle of pro-life vs. abortion.
