About this ebook
Art and murder collide in the new novel from Athol Dickson that takes readers on a wild ride of intrigue, mystery, and long-buried secrets.
A great artist is cast into the icy Harlem River by a hit-and-run driver. His heart stops, and he sees something that defies description.
Presumed dead by all who knew him and obsessed with the desire to paint the inexpressible, he embarks on a pilgrimage to seek help from holy men around the globe. But is it possible to see eternity without becoming lost within it?
After a quarter of a century, when the world begins to whisper that he may be alive, two people come looking for the artist: the daughter he never knew existed and the murderer who hit him on the bridge all those years ago.
