The Pedestal

Roberta Garcia has commissioned Jacob Ross to write an expose on her prominent employer, Rev. Alfonzo Small. The Rev. Small, a decorated Vietnam War hero and pastor of the largest African-American church in the state, retaliates by planning to have Roberta silenced. Small's plans are shattered when his hired assassins - a psychotic female and her two male accomplices - mistakenly murder Roberta's older sister, Shirley. Jacob exposes two other key players, lawyer Kenneth McBade and the state's governor, Warren Dell. Decorated heroes, Small, McBade and Dell served together in Vietnam. Jacob and Roberta go on the run for their lives to uncover information.
