| Publisher Description: "THOMAS BREWER has done this before, moving like a pinball through a surreal nightmare only to awake in a different physical place." So begins "Brewer's Odyssey." Popular writer, Thomas Brewer, 40, finds himself in a plot not unlike his Gothic novels. A nightmare predicts a terrorist attack, and when it occurs and Brewer survives, his assumed psychic abilities draw the interest of a cynical CIA agent, Jeffrey Peterson. When Hillary Miller, Brewer's English-African literary agent and former lover, is indirectly linked to a terrorist plot involving the Vatican, Brewer inadvertently implicates the Middle-Eastern father of Hillary Miller's infant daughter. Subsequent revenge brings tragic results at a Paris celebration. Neurologist Susan Fredericks, the object of Brewer's desire, reveals his living nightmares signal another condition: REM Sleep Behavior Disorder that suggests a deadly prognosis. Thomas Brewer might have little time before paranoia and hallucinations destroy him leaving unanswered questions: did he really meet the ghost of Daphne du Maurier, and just who is that mysterious black girl haunting his dreams? Despite a dark theme, "Brewer's Odyssey" is rich with a corrosive humor. The style is clear, at times, lyrical, and the story lines of Brewer's arduous journey will connect on the Aran island of Inishmore where magic can happen and redemption is possible. |
