Beyond Perceptions is set in the mid-1940s. Mac has returned home from war, visibly unscathed, but his memories are debilitating; hindering his decisions concerning love, lust, and duty. Arriving home to a dangerous situation, his own thoughts cripple him as he tries to protect those dear from the mob. Will his past force him to concede his dreams of the future? Louis embedded deep in the underworld of gangster and racketeers, where murder is just part of business and business can never have loose ends, remembers the one man he trusted. The war is now over, but the dark past Sal buried still dwells just under the surface. There is a new war brewing, and he is torn between two allegiances as they threaten to collide. He must decide at what price is loyalty?
