Tell No Lies John Grant

It is an easy enough mistake to make - the most natural mistake in the world. Cello is hooked up to the machine, but whose dreams does she experience? The house is suddenly infested, but with ... what? At the Edinburgh Fringe he meets Kristie; she seems to be exactly what he needs. The books Philip buys contain a signature that has no right to be there. In a West Country village petrol is ridiculously cheap; where does it come from? Caught in a blizzard he finds himself in Memoryville ... where he meets an old acquaintance.... Ginfalcio Beeswax and Truculence Fish are all that stand between the monsters from the blackness of outerspace and the end of mankind; but are issues closer to home more frightening than multi-tentacled aliens? Christopher - a miracle child. Nick's lives are ... haunted, but by whom? The artist is dead but her art lives on. It's Benjy's birthday - and he wants his own universe.
