Andrew Wolf was known as the greatest humanitarian and philanthropist, a superhero of the world who helped change the course of medicine and ecology while attaining peace in the Middle East. Yet the great man was also an enigma to the same world he was saving. No one really knew where he came from or what drove him to this planetary mission, until the most unlikely candidate and his partner began to unravel the mystery of Andrew Wolf.
Enter Ernie Churchwell, an insecure, bumbling but earnest reporter for a small-town newspaper who is sent by default to cover a major tribute to Wolf and in the process, together with the ex-wife whom he would desperately like to win back, uncovers the scoop of the century.
The journalistic sincerity of Ernie and the aggressive charm of partner Cathy Jean captivate the aging Wolf to the point where he allows them to look into his life as far back as he can remember—a 10-year-old invalid who can only speak German.
Through intrepid snooping and astute interviewing, Wolf recalls the youthful influences that built his life’s work. Poignant episodic experiences with a Holocaust survivor and a doomed relationship in the segregated South deeply illustrate how Andrew Wolf became determined to change the world with all the power he had.
Still, there remained a big gap in the origins of this great man who created an empire in a Midwest town so small that it’s called Minnow. What ensues is an exciting search for discovery within a newly-found underground vault and a diary that provides a startling glimpse into an alternate life which incredibly links the world’s greatest humanitarian with the world’s most evil force of destruction.
The Clash of One Mind weaves a spellbinding blend of human drama and science fiction intrigue—and the world as we know it may never be the same.
