Winner of the Booker Prize A historical novel set in the eighteenth century, Sacred Hunger is a stunning, engrossing exploration of power, domination, and greed in the British Empire as it entered fully into the slave trade and spread it throughout its colonies. Barry Unsworth follows the failing fortunes of William Kemp, a merchant pinning his last chance to a slave ship; his son who needs a fortune because he is in love with an upper-class woman; and his nephew who sails on the ship as its doctor because he has lost all he has loved. The voyage meets its demise when disease spreads among the slaves and the captain's drastic response provokes a mutiny. Joining together, the sailors and the slaves set up a secret, utopian society in the wilderness of Florida, only to await the vengeance of the single-minded, young Kemp.

The Sacred Secret: The Return of the Christ The Author presents evidence based on thirty years of independent scientific research. This evidence basically convicts one Lifeform of being a God. This lifeform has over two hundred Names. A lifeform Born of Thunder, that Resurrects from the dead! A lifeform that makes the Blind see, the Deaf hear, the Lame to walk, and cures all the sick. This lifeform is the root of Western Religion, the Living God, of all the ancient Holy Texts. There is only one real secret, in all the Western World and the Sacred Secret is it.
