After the Lights Go Out - by John Vercher (Hardcover)

"After the Lights Go Out" by John Vercher is a gripping, psychologically astute, and explosive tour de force about race, entertainment, and healthcare in America, and one man's battle against himself.

Xavier "Scarecrow" Wallace, a mixed-race MMA fighter on the wrong side of thirty, is facing the fight of his life as he battles his aging body and his failing brain.

With his memory in shreds and his life crumbling around him, can Xavier hold onto the focus he needs to survive? This book is a must-read for fans of Three-Fifths and those interested in the complexities of mixed-race relationships, misplaced loyalties, and the price athletes pay to entertain.
