Vertical Shift

Artists, inventors and creative people join forces in an underground movement to solve the problems of the world. As they grow in numbers and fill an Oakland factory space with works of art and create powerful inventions, including an electric car engine that lifts vertically into the air and flies, corporations become threatened, and plan to descend upon the group, bringing about a life-death struggle. The issue of humanity's future, and whether greed and denial will prevail, or solutions to environmental and social issues will triumph provides the tension to be resolved in Vertical Shift. Ross Drago's novel is also a love story, and an invitation to humanity to think in new and creative ways. The characters are alive with determination to change the world for the better, even if the price for doing so is their life. Anyone who dreams of a better world must read this amazing, timely novel that invites us to step into creative action. One of Ross Drago's best.
