Original Cyn

Sylvia Smith

Cynthia and her husband, The Right Reverend Wilburn Carter, are controlled by fear. Cynthia fears she might displease Wilburn, and if not him, his parishioners. But her immediate concern is the unidentified emptiness swelling in her gut. Meanwhile, Wilburn sits on the platform every Sunday wondering which parishioner will stab him in the back. But his overriding fear is that people will discover he is a phony. Their son, Justice, has left for college and Cynthia struggles with her marriage. Drowning in the lack of identity beyond the one assigned by her preacher-husband, Cynthia wonders whether she should stay in the relationship. Before she can decide, events force her to flee. If she goes far enough fast enough, those back home will have to deal with the chaos they created. Deal with it or go to hell in their sanctimonious hand baskets.
