Eric Folder has moved to Oregon to attend Portland State University when an automobile accident leaves him stricken with migraine headaches. The resulting visual effects-something medical professionals term an aura-render him virtually blind and defenseless when a gang of street thugs attacks him. Desperate to see and needing to protect himself, Eric reflexively tears at the luminous lines of light and finds they have become tangible. When he pulls them aside, his present reality folds away with them, leaving him in better circumstances with his enemies vanished. Attempts to fold his way out of successive perils leave him in increasingly strange situations until, eventually, his world becomes a nightmare.

Combined with a cracking story, it makes for quite the read!" Paul Kane - award-winning and bestselling author of Hooded Man, Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell, and Arcana."Raymond Bolton's Wraith presents an intriguing view of the intersections between the living and the dead.
