From his first breath, people know that John Reed is special. Gifted with an uncanny awareness and ability to communicate, he also possess the power to heal. Before long, a local priest heralds the infant as a new messiah, inadvertently drawing the attention of Neo Tech, part of a clandestine organization whose dark web extends from major multinational corporations to the vaults of the Vatican. Neo Tech believes that John Reed is neither holy, nor even human, but the first alien-human hybrid. They employ the beautiful Casey Lee Armstrong, an elite "remote viewer", to make psychic contact with the baby. What Casey discovers changes her world forever--and makes her a threat to Neo Tech. With the baby missing and her life in danger, Casey's sole ally is a renegade police detective, Michael Caruso. Together, they pursue John Reed through a maze of death, deceit, and disinformation to a place where realties collide. Solid binding. Moderate edgewear on the boards.

About the Author

Richard Sears grew up in Ardmore, Pennsylvania, and moved to London, England, in the late 1970s. He earned degrees in psychology and literature and for many years worked as a psychiatric counselor before pursuing a career in investigative journalism. A childhood "close encounter" inspired his lifelong interest in the paranormal and eventually led to the writing of First Born and Last Day.

A full-time writer, Sears lives with his wife and sons on Long Island, New York.
