Book excerpt: The recurring phantom of someone Detective Joe Thursday suspects may have been his former partnerÑdespite the fact that no one else remembers himÑleads Joe to start asking questions nobody should ask about the history of the Dream Police, and how they really came into existence. The deeper he goes, the more isolated he becomes, and the more dangerous his world becomes. How far will Joe go to find the truth? And will his partner Katie Black go with him...or turn against him?
