The Astral: Till the Day I Die
Shot while trying to prevent the kidnapping¸ murder¸ and brutal despoilment of her thirteen-year-old daughter¸ Southern California book editor Catherine Desmond has a "tunnel-of-light" experience. "There is something only you can do¸" the spirits tell her¸ and she is returned intact to her former life -- or is she?
When she recovers¸ Catherine finds herself gifted -- or cursed -- with astral projection¸ and to her dismay finds herself linked psychically with her daughter's murderer. But he too can project himself¸ and while she searches for a way to bring the brutal killer to justice¸ he begins stalking her as well¸ setting in motion an ethereal cat-and-mouse game¸ with life -- and death -- hanging in the balance!
"Another cutting-edge supernatural mystery¸ romance¸ and action thriller from a master of the genre. From the criminal world of child pornography to the hunt for a ruthless killer¸ Banis exhibits a sure touch in exploring themes relevant to the modern world. We care about these people¸ and we care about this story. First-rate!" -- Robert Reginald.
