Maia Kensington is an FBI agent with the gift of an innate ability to see what others overlook. Now she has to investigate the strange death of David Jacobs with the help of the person who was the young man’s psychiatrist, Robert Friedhoff.
David had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and was tormented by voices and apparitions. So Friedhoff proposed an experiment to give him some relief: he was to record all his activities for a week using a camera. That way he could confirm for himself that all those things were a product of his mind. It was a technique which had always yielded good results. However, this time something went wrong. While she interrogates the the psychiatrist, Maia goes through the images filmed by David with him, as well as other material from the therapy. And, in a dizzying series of events which culminate in a startling and uncompromising denouement, the FBI agent will discover what really happened and lift the veil which hides her own secret…
In a journey through the inner workings of the mind, David Zurdo and Hugo Stuven challenge us to reflect on the manipulation of human behaviour by the neurosciences and in doing construct a gripping thriller, part science fiction, part psychological analysis.
