About the Book

Sins of the Tribe, by author Mark A. Salter, explores the impact of intense tribalism and its resulting dehumanization in a setting that’s popular, wildly flawed, and hiding in plain sight: college football. Wally Hestia is on top of the world when he becomes a member of the Bastille University Tribe football team, a six-time national champion powerhouse with a pristine reputation and a nationwide following. But he’s only on the team as the holder for his mentally deficient brother, Henry, a kicking prodigy and the person who gives Wally purpose. But over time, Wally sees morality trampled for the larger cause of tribal dominance. When Wally finds himself in opposition to Bastille to the point where he and Henry are in danger, he must choose between the adulation of the larger tribe or embrace the idyllic virtues Bastille had draped itself in, even if it means losing everything.

Sins of the Tribe explores these hard truths: morality is subordinate to tribalism and the need for domination through violent proxies is real. Whether you are a football fan or a fan of fiction, this take on the dark side of this popular sport is for you.

About the Author

Like many Americans, Mark A. Salter has a deep love for football–both college and professional. He has an insider’s perspective on both worlds, given that he played the sport in high school and at Canisius College and even had a brief stint with the New York Giants before earning his master’s degree from Carnegie Mellon University. While numbers had ruled his career, writing literary fiction and reading philosophy have been his favorite pastimes for decades. He resides with his wife in Jupiter, Florida, where he is a member of the South Florida Writers Association and has won several short story contests. In his debut novel, Salter explores the impact of intense tribalism and its resulting dehumanization through the gripping tale of two Southern brothers on the fictional but all-too-realistic Bastille University Tribe football team.
