Haunted by the cruelty of her death, he embarks upon a journey into the bizarre, entering a hidden world where innocence and perversity meet and mingle. There, his relentless pursuit of the truth opens the gateway to a dark and baffling past-and brings him right into the line of fire.Praise for A Measure of Darkness'Edison is an interesting protagonist, a good man for whom finding the truth is more important than anything else, including his own safety.
