    About this ebook

    Sales wizard Joe Yount is an enviable guy: always the life of the party, lovely wife, quick with a funny story. Unfortunately, he's been unemployed for a while. That's why the opportunity Doctor Zemek gives him is too good to pass up. The paycheck will be nice, but what could be better than helping to cure cancer and save the planet? If only he could put a finger on why his new employer creeps him out so intensely, he could really enjoy the new job.

    Greg M. Hall

    Greg M. Hall has over a dozen stories and two novels online and in print. Though no single genre can contain him, he's got a soft spot in his heart for Horror, Science Fiction, and Fantasy with dark elements. After living on Maui and in Southern California, he got sick of the mild weather and moved home to eastern Nebraska, where he lives with his wife, a bunch of kids, and second pet tortoise--the first one ran away.
