This is the first book of David Stahler Jr.'s gripping Truesight trilogy. We are pleased to offer Stahler's award-winning novel, originally published in 2004 by HarperCollins, in electronic form.
"Stahler's powerful debut novel is two parts science-fiction thriller and one part cautionary fable about the dangers of fundamentalism. ...Supple writing and unusual twists should keep readers firmly hooked." --Publishers Weekly
