Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that there is no longer light in their lives. J. Wayne Frye takes you on an incredible journey into madness as Aaron Adams battles demons that he has been able to keep at bay most of his life. One cataclysmic event causes him to tumble off the precipice into the abyss of despair as he gradually descends into insanity. As Aaron Adams meanders about through corridors of hopelessness, a mysterious woman in a long black veil finds him and pleads for help from the only man in New York City who can bring some cold blooded killers to justice. It soon becomes evident to Aaron that there are others madder than he is and that the dreamers of the day are more dangerous than those who hide in the darkness, for those who dream in the day may act on their dreams with open eyes, as they bring the evil from the dark recesses of the night into the bright light of the day.

    Death is not the end in this thriller, because there is some thing, some entity that wants to do harm, needs to do harm, feeds on harm and relishes the fear it instils. Wayne Frye, the writer called by one European critic the Rembrandt of Words, once again explores the supernatural with his latest Lynton adventure. In Ladysmith, British Columbia there is an undetected evil which has been lurking about for over one-hundred years in the mist covered mountainside forest just outside of town. Lynton Viñas arrives after her latest adventure in South Africa, expecting to enjoy a quiet respite from her demon-hunting before beginning her new job in a nearby town. However, when stepping onto the ferry to her new home on Vancouver Island, she notices a sinister-looking, dark, shadowy figure lurking at the rear of the ship. This is only the first sign of what is going to be a journey into the macabre; a stark warning that something with malevolent intentions is waiting in the forest that seems to be beckoning her into the darkness of evil.

    In this exploration of lost hope and dreams, Wayne Frye goes inside Lady Liberty in America and finds that she is empty. This is a compendium of truth that lays bare the soul of a nation that is all facade with no core. Like his critically acclaimed TheCatastrophic Calamities of a Village Idiot in the Real Evil Empire and Fighting for Justice in the Land of Hypocrisy, in this effort, he tackles the lack of compassion in a nation that is the prime threat to world peace and uses its own unique brand of terrorism to bring othernations to their knees. As always, Dr. Frye pulls no punches and in his rapid fire prose that obliterates the privileged class and corporate entities that want to enslave all of humanity in service to the exalted few who rule like ancient potentates in their incipient desire to possess more and more.

    Like his critically acclaimed How Hockey Saved a Jew From the Holocaust and Hockey Mania and the Mystery of Nancy Running Elk, Wayne Frye once again scores with a book that uses hockey as a metaphor for life. This is a rousing rendition of how a group of young men became hockey legends. The fiery description of hockey games by Wayne Frye puts you right in the action. You can feel the cold of the ice slapping you in the face. You experience the tension before, during and after a game. You can sense the pain from a bone-crushing check. You can feel the bleeding wound from an errant stick that has opened up a gash on your chin. This book takes you inside the game, inside the heads of the players who built a legacy in the mists of time that endures to this day. These young men were more than hockey players. They were mighty warriors who went into battle against the foe with desire and determination that bordered on the fanatical. The reader gets into the heads of some extraordinary people, as this book is also about them as individuals, not just hockey players. At a time of budding knowledge and affirmation of intended life goals, these young men represented the very best of a whole generation from a time when the world was swiftly changing. Each rush up ice, each booming shot, each devastating check, each goal was an affirmation of what human beings are capable of when they dedicate themselves to a cause. These extraordinary young men were, as Wayne Frye says, "writing history with lightning."
