Summary:
Joe Stanton is in agony. Out of
his mind over the death of his young daughter. Or so it seems.
Unable to contain his grief, Joe loses control in public, screaming his daughter’s name and causing a huge scene at a hotel on San Juan Island in Washington State. Thing is, Joe Stanton doesn’t have a daughter. Never did. And when the authorities arrive they blame the 28-year-old’s outburst on drugs.
What they don’t yet know is that others up and down the Pacific coast—from the Bering Sea to the Puget Sound—are suffering identical, always fatal mental breakdowns.
With the help of his girlfriend—the woman he loves and dreams of marrying—Joe struggles to unravel the meaning of the hallucination destroying his mind. As the couple begins to perceive its significance—and Joe’s role in a looming global calamity—they must also outwit a billionaire weapons contractor bent on exploiting Joe’s newfound understanding of the cosmos, and outlast the time bomb ticking in Joe’s brain.

Top Ten Guest Post
1)
What are the top ten things you couldn’t live without on a deserted Island?
First
off, I’d want this to be a deserted island in Southeast Alaska. Not a desert
island. I don’t do well in hot weather. I need snow and mountains and big
trees.
Things
I’d have to have with me:
-
My wife and son
-
Our Australian shepherds, Indigo and Bear
-
Good coffee
-
Good beer
-
A nice supply of food.
-
Tools, so we could build a cabin in the woods
-
Kayaks
-
Guns, so we could hunt
-
Fishing gear, so we could catch salmon
-
A small library of great books
