A Cracked Egg

di Farrell McNulty (Autore)

Farrell McNulty, 2017

Well-to-do but unhappily married Bruce sets about pursuing his latest affair. However, he discovers she's a born-again Christian who misconstrues his overtures as interest in her church. So he feings said interest in said church...and he and his life will be forever transformed. Jimmy was adopted by a local couple and Bruce was shunted off to live with his aunt in Manchester, England, and several years later they just happened to meet and befriend each other simply by chance - or WAS IT!At this point, Bruce is convinced his friend and newly-found brother could be right about this pastor, and helps him with the investigation. Meanwhile, thanks to news coverage of a church picket of a family-planning clinic across the street, the pastor develops a media following the likes of Fr Michael Pfleger, and is offered a trial broadcast of one of his services. Jimmy, nursing a years-long grudge against crooked televangelists, hatches a plan to take the so-called pastor down on live television, right in the middle of the service.As this plan is developing, Jimmy also uncovers some unsavory deceit from Bruce’s wife Vanessa. Fed up with over 30 years of lies and manipulation he calls for an uncontested divorce, and she runs off to have an affair which turns out badly for her.Back to the broadcast, bedlam ensues and the brothers are held at bay by the now crazed pastor who sees no other way out than to brandish a pistol and take them hostage. Bruce goes for the gun and is shot in front of thousands of viewers. His life hangs in the balance as Jimmy brings the cops in to round up the rogue reverend.
