Alex Brocton is an award-winning science fiction author. Where does he get his ideas? From everyone—everyone he comes in contact with. Alex is a mind reader who sees those imaginings that all of us think about as we scurry through our day. He sees our fantasies, our aspirations, our daydreams. Life is good for a twenty-eight-year-old unmarried writer. Just one problem. Someone has been watching him for years. Someone who knows Alex is able to read minds. What does he want? When Alex is the victim of a mugging, he is rescued by the mysterious stranger who knows Alex’s secret. The stranger calls himself Mr. Quiver, but Alex remains at a loss about this mystery man’s motives. Alex engages Larry Coates, a childhood friend who has become a lawyer, to help him find Mr. Quiver. The search takes a deadly turn when a crazed fan attacks Alex at a science fiction convention. Alex nearly dies but is revived in the hospital. The fan is found murdered in his hotel room. Now a homicide case, Alex and Larry Coates put a plan into motion to capture Mr. Quiver and bring him to justice. Through a twisting and complex series of events, Alex learns the shocking truth about Mr. Quiver. Mr. Quiver is closer than Alex ever thought. Much closer.
