Everyone has their own private hell, and Bram Stoker Award winner, Douglas Clegg, is a master at leading us down the path to his character's nether realms of the devil and the demons. The threads of Julie Hutchinson's sanity begin to unravel when her husband, Jeff, is murdered in an act of bestial depravity. Julie begins to have erotic nightmares and hallucinations as she tries to find out what was behind Jeff's murder.
Julie brings to light bizarre secrets involving Jeff's past connection with "Project Daylight," a privately funded school that conducted experiments on children with ESP. She consults a psychic named Michael Diamond who dreams of blood and lost souls, and knows unthinkable secrets. He's prepared to go to any extreme to keep them hidden. And what about Livy, Julie's daughter? Can she keep her safe?
Clegg's inventive mind introduces compelling characters in a complex plot that is filled with bizarre twists including the conceptual reality of reincarnation and psychic phenomena. The suspense is nearly unbearable and the climax caught me by surprise and has me wondering about my own soul. No question....Clegg is a writer at the top of the horror genre, and classic horror has not gone out of style. This story kept me up most of the night to find out what happened.

Every one of his books just keep getting better. Really good ghost story.

Very suspenseful novel--if you like terror!
Not as good as other Clegg books. I lost interest in it about half way through.

I was liking this book until I got towards the end of it, then it sort of failed
