"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious." (Einstein).

GEESH.....try to put this one down.....If you're a fan of sci-fi, you're going to love this, and if you're not, you just may become one. Enjoy a trip to Chicago, attend a Cub's game at Wrigley and ride the Ferris wheel, but be wary for life can change on a dime.

Jason Dessen is a genius, an Atomic Physicist and Professor at a small college. He has a loving wife, a bright teenage son, and everything is right as rain, but life as he knows it is about to become a living nightmare.

Full of imagination and intense moments, this magical story is a bit eerie, at times shocking and always full of suspense.

Don't take anything for granted in the world of DARK MATTER.......solve the problem, and enjoy a great read full of mystery and true love.
