Acerca del autor
Born in Dublin in 1973, Oisin spent his childhood there and in Drogheda, County Louth. Unable to conceive of a way to make a living from writing fiction, he decided to fund his dreams of being an author by working as an illustrator (yes, he was that naive). He signed up for a design and print foundation course and then studied animation at Dun Laoghaire School of Art and Design. Setting up as a freelance illustrator/artist, he then took up a position at Fred Wolf Films, working on the animated series of Zorro. After completing his contract, he decided to expand his horizons and left for London to seek his fortune. He found gainful employment as a security guard, watching over trains and then hospitals. Following three and a half years of working in advertising he became increasingly concerned for his immortal soul. He returned to Ireland much as he had left - with no job, no home and some meagre savings. Ever the optimist, he now works once more as a freelance illustrator and mercenary artist by day and escapist writer by night. He hopes one day to have a decent job, with a pension, a health plan and paid annual holidays.
De la contraportada
Ivor is convinced he's being watched . . .
Amina Mir is doing work experience with a newspaper in London when she meets Ivor McMorris. Ivor served in the war in Sinnostan and believes that someone interfered with his memories while he was there. He's afraid that if he tries to do anything about it, the watchers might make him disappear.
Chi Sandwith investigates conspiracies. He has spoken to soldiers who, like Ivor, are haunted by their experiences in Sinnostan. They speak in fearful tones of a covert operations group known as the Scalps. People who ask too many questions about the Scalps tend to suffer 'accidents'.
Tariq is Amina's teenage brother. He's taking part in a new school programme, run by the Army. They are using action-packed computer games to teach parts of the curriculum . . . and he's loving it. But he starts to suspect that the games have a different purpose.
Some questions are better left unanswered. Some mysteries are better left unsolved. The truth is out there - but it could get you killed . . .
