THE GLASS HOUSE OR When The Moon's Too Thin For Stories

The cinematic conclusion to the Junction Chronicles series (book 3)

Decker Roberts was born with a gift: he always knows when you're telling the truth. Over time, however, that gift has become a burden. Struggling to find his way, Decker has retreated into isolation in Namibia. But a man like Decker can only live off the grid for so long before someone comes looking. When Decker's estranged son, Seth, is kidnapped, it sets in motion a chain of events as unstoppable as it is mysterious. Held captive by WJ, a man incapable of emotion, and desperately tracked by Yslan Hicks of the NSA, Seth is the key to everyone's plans. His inherited ‘gifts' are more powerful than his father's, and there are some who will do anything to control them. When Seth's trail runs cold, Yslan turns to Decker's old friends for help in locating both father and son. Soon they find themselves confronting an ancient conspiracy as they are inescapably drawn towards a conclusion that will change both themselves and the world around them.
