Publisher's Synopsis
Patrick Monahan, a retired military officer, didn't expect to discover anyone walking in the arroyo-certainly not this albino, a mysterious young man who has ties to Patrick's own past.
Patrick lives a quiet life and avoids lurking too deeply within the depths of his own memory. Nothing ever happens to him now, and he likes it that way.
The albino, coincidentally also called Patrick, changes that forever. He's in desperate need of a friend, and Patrick knows he can't turn his back on the young man. As the albino, called Pat, becomes more comfortable around his new friend, he begins to divulge a horrifying past full of scientific experiments and parental cruelty. The experiments, particularly in the area of low frequency radio waves, have given Pat mysterious gifts that can be considered truly phenomenal. And Patrick isn't the only one who thinks so. Pat's deranged father along with the corporate world and the military all pose a serious threat to the naïve and gentle young man.
Patrick will have to step up to help this innocent escape the clutches of powerful, merciless men. Along the way, he will find a new family-and a new reason to end his isolation.
