O knihe

"ghosts, murders, psychics, unlikely romance and nonstop action ... " - KIRKUS REVIEWS (starred) Life is rough with eyes that see the dead. At 5 Asher was a prodigy, until color seizures stopped his painting forever. Now he's 26 and managing his crazy from a bar stool in the secretive SoCal arts colony of Skysill Beach, moonlighting as an art investigator. In Skysill Beach, forgery is everyone's problem. But for Ash, forgery is torture. His ultraviolet eyes see too much. When wealthy art dealer Waylon Goodman calls, Asher assumes it's to expose another forgery. But Waylon's daughter is dead, and Asher finds ultraviolet paint on her body where it should not be. Soon her ultraviolet ghost begins following him, forcing an investigation that leads him deep into Skysill, ever nearer his own buried secrets. And there, using eyes he can't control, Asher discovers ultraviolet magic, murderous forgers, intoxicating psychics, while becoming well known to the police and briefly, shockingly, even becoming a ghost himself. ¿¿¿This is Volume One of a 5-book fantasy-mystery series entitled THE HISTORY OF LIGHT. The epic arc turns on Asher's discovery that neither he nor any human alive should see ghosts, because humans no longer have ghosts. Millennia ago, unknown hands cut our ghosts away. Now those hands have returned, and taken up the blade again, in The Ghost with a Knife at her Throat.
