The Shadow Player (The V Trilogy) (Volume 1) Ellis Kross 1. izdevums

Life was pretty simple for five year old, Henry Burl, until he witnessed his mother commit the ultimate sin: murder. Now, at the age of fifteen, the memory of that one day in the haunted wetlands of Sinclair Leprieur, Louisiana, still lingers with Henry. To cope with the tragedy, Henry finds another means of escape: music. On the way home from high school, Henry discovers a saxophone with the initials, H. M., behind a pawnshop window. The saxophone happens to be one just like the legendary saxophonist, Mr. Vortex, plays?only this one is a soprano, not an alto. What Henry doesn?t know?at least not until he plays the saxophone?is that the saxophone, whom he calls Adrian after the character from the movie Rocky, has unexplainable powers. Adrian isn?t any ordinary soprano saxophone. When Henry is forced to confront his dark past, he will soon realize that the origins of Adrian are much closer to home than he had ever imagined.
