Dear Mr. Bear,
My wife is a long-distance endurance cyclist, and for the last three days, Mariposa has been upsetting her training schedule.
All kidding aside, this is not a book easily set aside. Thanks for another great read.
Best regards,
Steven Becker

Good to hear! Thanks, Steven--and I hope she's back riding by now.

Greg first perfected that "Page Turner" engrossing prose in his first horror novel: PYSCHLONE. While I am a fast reader...one raining Saturday night when that novel first came out I ended up staying up to 3 AM reading it to the finish...starting around 9 PM.
Then I was so freaked I couldn't sleep...only the second time in my life back then when I had been up and greeted the next morning's sun...

Ghost stories can have that effect!
