Val Haverford's sci-fi and Western novels made him a household name. But that was a decade ago. Creative stagnation led Val to withdraw into his idyllic cabin at the edge of Chicago's lakefront, as far from the press and prying fans as possible. When a number of people disappear after violent attacks, Val is pulled into a plot darker than any he could pen. As he digs into a dystopian conspiracy with disturbing similarities to incidents in his youth, he's warned to watch his step-by a captivated reporter, his fast-rising competition, even his agent-before he becomes a target himself. But Val's fading health won't let him quit. He has one chance to revive his career and reconcile the past before he-and everyone he loves-is silenced for good.

May 1868 -- an Aboriginal Australian cricket team begins a tour of England. One of the players is on a quest to explore his Truth, or Dreaming.Sarah Larkin's quiet routine, divided between her father's sick room and the British Library, takes on a completely new aspect when King Cole, aka Brippoki, arrives unannounced on her doorstep, requesting her help. A curious friendship develops as together they research the fate and fortune of Joseph Druce, a convicted felon, transported to New South Wales nearly eighty years earlier: sneak thief, drunkard, cattle rustler, Royal Navy deserter -- and quite possibly a murderer.From Lord's cricket ground to the Royal Naval Hospital at Greenwich and the muddy banks of the River Thames -- the Great Serpent coiled at the heart of his London Dreaming -- diabolical spirits rage in pursuit of the hapless Aborigine. His health and sanity unravelling, Brippoki is a man out of place, and running out of time.In this powerful debut novel, Ed Hillyer has created an epic brimming with memorable characters and historical intrigue, and etched with documentary detail that brings both Regency and Victorian London vividly to life.
