Mind Stalked

BookLife Prize for Fiction 2016

“This promising series debut makes the most of the author’s premise -- a man, who works for the National Security Agency, finds himself in a deserted Chicago street, unsure of how he got there, but with horrific memories. The author makes this improbable concept work, by dint of superior prose and thoughtful structuring of plot developments, which build up to a surprising but logical reveal that nicely sets up a sequel.”

MIND ETCHED

Hallucinations or a killer’s reality?

When Federal profiler Nico Sophianos has recurring nightmares steeped in horror and death, he’s convinced he’s losing his mind. Could he be this cold-blooded killer? Photos and case files can’t lie, and they expose his visions all too well.

Hiding the extent of his hallucinations from his staff grows increasingly difficult with each new case. Hiding from the perceptiveness of his clandestine therapist is even harder, until he enlists her help in separating chimeras from reality.

A master is pulling the strings, and victims are falling with increasing bloody frequency. How can Nico sever his connection to the mind web? Only by learning the truth and destroying the killer can Nico save lives, but the price might be his sanity.
