GLORIA is an Essex County novel that shares its location and some of its characters with the widely acclaimed DIVISIBLE MAN series. The story is investigative, filled with mystery around disappearances, unsolved cases, and the tantalizing lure of a memory just out of reach.
Close your eyes. Reach back for a memory. The strongest, sharpest memory you have. A moment of such clarity that you can see every color an crease, touch lost textures and ridges, draw in crisp and forgotten scent.
A memory so clear that the moment wraps around you.
Envelopes you.
And you are there.
When Henry Halder experiences a momentary plunge into a memory so real that he impulsively alters the event, he begins a captivating but dangerous journey of hope, trauma, and the fluidity of reality. Because 30 years ago on the night of an intense ice storm, Henry's life changed forever when he lost both legs under the wheels of a train. And now he begins to realize that an impossible chance exists to change the outcome of that horrific night. However, Henry's memories cannot be trusted. They split: two vivid and contradictory outcomes of the same event. A lost toy is both lost and found. A diorama is both ruined and preserved. These dueling outcomes remain equally vivid, leaving him to puzzle whether he's unintentionally blurring the truth-or he has successfully altered the past. Crucially, he realizes that certain people in his life trigger these memory shifts: his sister Jeanie, his friend Mike, and most powerfully, a missing classmate.
As he digs deeper, Henry uncovers far more than he expects: repressed childhood memories, dark secrets, and the realization that sometimes, unearthing the past is the slipperiest of slopes. Too soon, he finds the path to his deepest desire blocked by murder, amnesia, and lost contact with his first crush...Gloria.
