Publisher's Synopsis
Ryan Edward Langston is lost in his own world, but even there he is a stranger to himself.
He finds himself dreaming strange shattered dreams and when he wakes, a terrible monster is always waiting and ready to ravage him. This too is a part of his dream. Or is it?
The dreams happen every day but when he wakes, he had no memory of them. He spends his life in asingle room; his world has been taken from him. He lives from day-to-day, then month-to-month andfinally year-to-year, but he can only remember from moment to moment. He has no past, no future; onlythe "now" exists for him.
In another time he is found clinging to a single wooden beam in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean on the edge of the Sargasso Sea. He is nearly dead. He is flown to a hospital in the U.S. There his two doctors and a CIA agent try to unravel the mystery of who he is and how he had come to be found at sea. An international search for his identity leads to a dead-end-no photo ID, no fingerprint match, no DNA match; he is a ghost to the world.
The United States intelligence community is monitoring "terrorist chatter" when the letters "POUS"(the same letters tattooed on Ryan's leg) are mentioned in the same sentence as "The Fire of Allah."This is the code word for a nuclear weapon. CIA Special Agent Stapleton is dispatched to Ryan's bedside to help his psychologist and doctor rebuild Ryan's memory and save the world from nuclear disaster.
Slowly, as Ryan begins to recover, the mystery begins to unfold, but each layer only reveals another mystery that takes the search for Ryan's story around the world and deeper and deeper into a world they could never imagine existed.
All the while, a third party, an international ultra-secret organization orchestrates Ryan's life from the wings and is invisible to all.
