Black House, leather bound with laser-etched hand-dyed genuine leather.
Twenty years ago, a boy named Jack Sawyer traveled to a parallel universe called the Territories in order to save his mother and her “Twinner” from an agonizing death that would have brought cataclysm to his own world. Now Jack is a retired Los Angeles homicide detective living in a small Wisconsin town, with no recollection of his adventures in the Territories…and having been compelled to leave the force when a fateful event threatened to awaken those long-suppressed and dangerous memories. As a series of gruesome murders strikes the region-slayings reminiscent of heinous crimes committed several decades earlier- Jack’s friend, the local chief of police, begs him to help find the killer. But is this new bloodshed merely the work of disturbed individual…or has a mysterious and malignant force been unleashed in this quiet little town? What causes Jack’s inexplicable waking dreams-if that’s what they truly are-of robins’ eggs and red feathers? As these cryptic messages become impossible to ignore, Jack finds himself drawn back to the Territories- and to the treacherous secrets of his own hidden past….
