The Invisible World Is a place of half-truths, mystery and deceit. It is a place locked in the subconscious mind where dreams and memories act as windows to the outside. And it harbours the deepest pain. Samuel Xavier Adams is all too familiar with The Invisible World. It's where he sees his sister who died from heroin addiction, and it's where he glimpses his recently deceased mother. It's also the place where the memories of his father are locked away, a father shrouded in mystery, a hunted man. Now that man is back, and has been seen in the chapel of rest where the ashes of Samuel's mother await his collection. When the ashes disappear, Samuel knows that his father has taken them - but why? He wants answers. Why has his father returned again and after such a long time, and what did he do that keeps him in constant hiding. Samuel wants answers. But time is running out, there are those that will kill to get to his father before he does.
