Summary of the book:
Imagine your friend repeatedly kills himself
in front of you in your dreams while asking you for help. What would you do? Would

quest to find out what happened to him? A quest which then places you and
others at danger too?

Description by Author:
In the smoky noir world of 1958 San
Francisco, a down and out private detective experiences a series of
surrealistic yet frightening dreams, in which his once best friend pleads for
his help, before turning a gun to his head and committing suicide. To ease the
lingering doubts regarding his friend's well-being, he sets out to locate him,
only to learn he in fact committed suicide, a month before the dreams began. As
his investigation deepens, the detective becomes alternately convinced of his
friend's suicide, survival and murder, before confronting the shocking reality
of his friend’s actual fate, as well as facing the final desperation of his
own.
