International bestselling author Campbell Armstrong sweeps readers back to the psychedelic sixties in an atmospheric, page-turning thriller about a fugitive ex-hippie who must run for his life when he is caught up in a political conspiracy Many years ago, Harry Tennant managed to escape San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury hippie scene relatively intact, although his memory of that time is largely wiped out. Now Harry's peaceful life is overturned when his upstate-New York marijuana farm is raided by the police and he's thrown in jail. Released on bail, Harry is contacted by Alison Seagrove, a reporter investigating a conspiracy connected to Harry's hazy past. When she shows him an old photo of himself and four others, Harry barely recognizes himself and can't remember his friends' names--or why the photograph has global political implications. To avoid prison and stay one step ahead of the killers pursuing him, Harry undertakes a chilling journey back to Haight-Ashbury to unlock the mystery behind his shattered memory.… (meer)

This book is a mystery. There is no question about it. From the very beginning you are taken on a wild ride by the author, into a gray area that begins in the sixties and might as well end with a drug-induced hallucination. The mystery itself is that bizarre. But it is thoroughly enjoyable. It surprised me that I couldn't put the book down, even as life inside of it was getting stranger and stranger with every page I turned.

You can't properly describe this book to other readers, you simply have to ask them to experience it. The writing is so perfect that at times you can physically feel the essence of silence or the complete emptiness in knowing you aren't who you think you are. There is just no way to explain this experience, which is fitting with the sixties, I think. It isn't often you come across a book where the writing so perfectly mimics the setting that it makes the hair stand up on your arms. ( )
