A normal day quickly becomes a nightmare for a young lawyer John Davis as the world around him begins to overwrite itself. Reality changes, night becomes day, rain becomes shine–and only he notices. As John struggles to understand what's happening to him, the alterations take a turn for the sinister. Accidents happen. People vanish. Memories are wiped clean. History itself is rewritten and the world is reshuffled to match it. Alone amongst the multitudes of the world only John is cursed with the ability to perceive these changes.
Across the country the violent tears in the fabric of reality are being monitored. A dark and sinister organization watches and waits for its moment to strike. Very soon, John Davis finds himself fighting for his life.
Terrified and utterly isolated, John turns to the only person he can trust–an old friend and a link to his past. But in this world of shifting reality, how far can anyone be trusted? What can you hold onto when everything you know can vanish at the whim of fate?
“With its excellent pacing and beautifully complex plot, Shifter is a peach of a novel. Think you know what reality is? Shifter will convince you otherwise.”
– Cas Peace, author of the Artesans of Albia series.
“This may be the best first novel you read this year. It is certainly the most unusual and the most promising. Good versus evil, definition versus doubt--these themes always make a good read.”
- Jack L. Kennedy, journalist at the Joplin Independent
“I was absolutely delighted by the ending... marvelous! I would love to see a sequel.”
- K. Sozaeva, blogger and reviewer at Now Is Gone.
