Transition

How will you survive a life-changing trauma?

Discover the resilience of the human spirit in Carol Bluestein's riveting novel, "Transition: Love. Loss. Leverage. Murder."

In the wake of Pennsylvania's iconic Circle Center Mall's collapse, fueled by greed, a community dies. In the aftermath of Hurricane Helena, caused by rising temperatures, southern Florida reverts to a swampy bog. In upstate New York, a tourist community is under a covert attack, as a private equity company seeks to enrich its coffers at the expense of local business owners and town residents. In the shadow of institutional abuses resulting in major disasters, people deal with abuse and trauma on a very personal level where their only option is a life reset.

TRANSITION follows a diverse group of people, including the President of the United States, who must face the brutal reality of their situations - victims of a society skewed by the patriarchy and the ruthless ambitions of private equity tycoon David Devhour. Amidst the chaos, an oasis of hope named Thrive emerges. Here visionaries Amaliyah and Taxi manage a community committed to normalizing a groundbreaking circular economy.

But, dark secrets simmer in Lake George as David Devhour, and his private equity investment firm, DICM, plan to "own" the town, skimming most of the profit under the guise of professional management. His first move is to take over the local bank, which appears to trigger the mysterious murder of community leader Tier Williams. Follow Special FBI Agents Beth and Eric on their heart-stopping quest for the truth.

TRANSITION weaves a complex tapestry of narratives, from the devastation of natural disasters to the intimate struggles within families and the corridors of power. It is a story that questions the morality of profit over people and champions a future built on the foundations of empathy, sustainability, and collective strength.

For readers who appreciated the intricate storytelling and deep environmental themes of "The Overstory" by Richard Powers and the compelling narrative of societal collapse in "American War" by Omar El Akkad, "Transition" offers a similarly engaging and thought-provoking experience.
