Master Plan

The Master Plan is written as a lightly-narrated and partially-illustrated passion play. Characters and events are compatible with the Bible and history, while minor descriptive detail is added and some times are overlapping. Along with the genuinely historical Samuel Ajayi Crowther, the reader of the book becomes a prominent character of the book. Together they interact with the Biblical characters as they go about their mission of reovering Jesus' once-used cloak. Telepathy between the two men is distinguished through italics. The mission of the two protagonists (Crowther and Reader) is to recover Jesus' cloak. As it is the symbol here of the Mosaic Law, it could only COVER sin - but could never permanently remove it. The focus of the men's journey is on withdrawing the Law cloak so that Jesus' Blood is installed as its powerful replacement.
