    About this ebook

    There are those among us who are so pure that even in death their compassion for the human race carries on

    In an old book store in a quaint little town in rural New Hampshire, a spiral staircase leads to a small loft with a special section of books. The staircase is roped off, but Tim Jamieson becomes curious when he keeps seeing the same mysterious old man coming and going from the loft. Tim’s curiosity gets the best of him and he finally approaches the old man to ask him what kind of books are up in the loft. The old man tells Tim that he should forget about the loft. When Tim continues to question him, the old man tells Tim that his life may change drastically, if he does climb the stairway. Tim is too curious and he cannot heed the old man’s warning.

    Each book Tim reads from the special bookcase leads him down a path that may change his life forever. Tim must look deep inside himself to see if he is content to watch the world spin by while living his comfortable life or if he is courageous enough to do what he knows must be done. Will Tim surprise himself and learn that he is brave enough to step into the unknown?

    Note that this book is a series of stories within a story. The main story is about the unusual books that Tim reads and the even more unusual author. Each book Tim reads is presented here as its own unique story with its own setting and characters. The books Tim reads include stories about human trafficking, terrorism, disease epidemics and serial killers. The stories are tied together by Tim who must decide as he finishes each story, if he is going to become a character in the story or watch it unfold from the sidelines.

    This book has received many 5-star reviews, published on other publisher sites. "A THRILLER..? MUCH, MUCH MORE THAN THAT..." "SUSPENSEFUL AND VERY WELL WRITTEN!" "Interesting read with multiple levels of supernatural mystery"
