The Triumph TR3 was running sweet tonight; Danny Holman had been fiddling with it for a week straight, but he'd tinkered with it near nonstop for the eight months he'd owned it without any really definite results. But now he was doing--well, nearly sixty--through the September night, all along on I-80, a wire-wheeled golden bat out of hell. (from the first line)
| When Danny Holman leaves the cornfields of Iowa for the bright lights of Chicago, he expects his life to change. He just can't guess how much. A violent incident brings Danny the favor of a man known only as Mr. Patrise, who gives Danny a job, a home, and a new identity. The City is a different world than Danny -- now called Doc -- knew. Long-vanished powers have returned, and more is going on on the streets than nightlife and street warfare. Power is gathering: a power rooted in terror, madness, and death. To fight it will require Doc to face what he most fears in himself; to defeat it will take something more than courage. |
