To Hide from a Northern Wind

 The remaining members of both families call a truce and consolidate their efforts to protect one of their own. But knowing their history, how long can that last?   

 As the world continues to stumble its way through the twentieth century and initial members of the families pass on, the hatred seems to dissipate as each faction moves in its own direction-Albert as a minister, Randall and Susan as attorneys.                

Surprisingly, a sudden turn of events finds both Susan and Randall on the same side of the council table, in the courtroom, fighting for the very life of Albert.   

The country struggles to find a way to resolve racial and sexual discrimination issues along with trying to understand the events of 9/11. However, inside that courtroom, Randall and Susan create a formidable legal team as they use every available legal maneuver they know, to save Albert from what would more than likely amount to a death sentence as he spends his foreseeable future in prison. At least superficially, all appears appropriate between the three remaining family members. But is it only just a matter of time before all those old family issues resurface once again?
