- Summary
- " Fate--now there is a mystical word. It holds within itself a vast richness of possibilities. Is a person's fate shaped by his or her own actions or is it predetermined by some mysterious forces at work in the universe? And what of curses? Can a person or a whole family be cursed? The Kennedy family came to believe they had been cursed. Bobby Kennedy, having just experienced his greatest victory by winning the California Primary in 1968, took a shortcut through the kitchen at the Ambassador Hotel and came face-to-face with his fate. Truth, it is said, is stranger than fiction. Yet aren't both cut from the same cloth? The principal characters in this story--Jules, Jennifer, and Chucky--seem unaware of what their collective fate has in store. Life within the walls of academia seems sane and sensible. And then it happened--a world turned upside down! Give all the scientific and naturalistic explanations you wish, life nurtures its own mysteries. That is the lesson An Incident at the Devil's Tramping Ground has to teach"--Page 4 of cover.
