About The Ghost, Vol.: 1 Genesis (Unabridged)

A Man Lost Between Two Worlds On a snowy winter night, drug cartel assassins bomb the home of FBI Special Agent Nicholas Lee, killing Nick's wife and daughter. But the mortally wounded Nick finds himself propelled to a parallel dimension. Confused, bewildered, staggering under this incomprehensible loss, he finds himself floating in a strange world, ". . . aware that this was not a 'place' per se. He was on a path about the width of railroad tracks, and rather than sky or trees on either side, strings of incandescent lights streamed past him. They wrapped around him as if measuring or surveilling him, then broke away, flew out, and returned. These sequences of illumination whooshed as they passed, the sound diminishing as they retreated." Nick discovers he can migrate between this realm and the physical world, a power that gives him a form of invisibility. He can also instantly read human auras, communicate in all languages, and even telepathically connect to the thoughts of animals. Merging these new abilities with his career as an FBI agent provides intriguing crime-solving scenarios. This first volume in the series follows Nick as he struggles to cope with his wife and daughter's deaths while coming to grips with the parallel realm that draws him in. Nick encounters a cast of quirky paranormal FBI recruits during this emotional therapy. Then he faces a real test of his skills when confronting a team of radical right-wing extremists planning to commit mass murder.
