Book Description

A tale of ancient mythic wonder and a mesmerising psychological fantasy thriller by 'one of the finest living crafters of myth' (PUBLISHERS WEEKLY)

From the Back Cover

A mesmerizing psychological fantasy thriller.

Jack Chatwin has visions. Vivid experiences of a world in parallel to our own; brief encounters with a human couple, Greyface and Greenface, fleeing a terrible event in their own world. But is he witnessing events from the past? From the future? From a world in parallel to, or alien to his own?

Only when Greyface escapes into Jack’s reality does the startling truth of what Jack has been experiencing start to occur to him. But Greenface has failed to follow her partner: she is still lost and in danger in a world that Jack must start to understand and enter, a hunter himself in a magical illusory land – his task to reunite the runners.

And everything he loves depends upon his success.

“A mythmaker of originality.”
