During an election campaign, a certain Sam Sebastian, the manager of candidate Hawthorn, hires Moses to track down Howard Eppis, a young leader of the Berkeley riots, who has long been absent from American life. Moses is contacted by Sebastian thanks to Lila, Moses's former girlfriend and partner during the student riots of their youth. The keen Moses Wine, thanks to the help of lawyer Spitzler manages to talk with two rioters serving life sentences and gets a name out of them: Oscar Procary Jr. Confusion increases when the investigator is contacted by Oscar Procary Senior, who asks him to find his son. The police, as well as some mysterious killers, start following poor Moses, who cannot make any connection between Procary, Eppis and Hawthorn. Lila gets killed. Moses then starts digging into the case and, a terrible attack, discovers that Eppis lives in disguise as a middle-class man, making a lot of money with revolutionary slogans and advertising. Sam Sebastian is really Oscar Procary Jr. and his father is the dark soul of a conspiracy.
