'An assured page-turner ... it combines action and foreign locations with big ideas a la Dan Brown' Sunday Times

The US President Thompson has been dreaming of his own death. A repeating nightmare that hounds him night after night that he can't ignore: something tells him it's not just a dream, it feels too real.

Thompson's doctor, military psychiatrist Josh Cain, is summoned to a church tower near the White House. He thinks he is there to talk down another suicidal ex-Marine. But the man he finds tells him of a plot to kill Thompson, revealing secrets he can't possibly have known - just seconds before a sniper's bullet takes him out . . .

Battles have been fought man to man, then machine to machine, and even in cyberspace. But now there is a different battlefield emerging: human consciousness and the fight for our minds.

What readers are saying:

'A classy, intelligent and reflective investigative thriller.'
'A layered plot, engaging characters and a spine chilling ring of truth to the plot, which lured me in and kept me trapped until the final page.'
'A real page turner with plenty of surprises and twists. Great read.'
'THE BEST BOOK THAT I'VE READ ALL YEAR!'
