This book tells the compelling story of John Hardy, a Canadian businessman who, after a chance encounter with a mysterious figure, is inspired to reconsider his shallow patriotism and dig deep into the meaning of true sacrifice and nationhood.

The novel grapples with universal themes of loss, grief, and the search for meaning in the wake of great upheaval. Through the eyes of its protagonist, the book delves into the complexities of Canadian identity and the ongoing struggle between self-interest and the greater good. The author's evocative prose and deft characterization make for a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be a citizen in a rapidly changing world.
