'Dr. Josh'-family physician, reluctant clairvoyant, and bad detective-has a problem. The visions have been rough enough, each rocketing him forward to a patient's final rattling exhalation, but at least they sometimes help him figure out an early treatment. Until he examines Dennis Delveccio and sees a future that holds something else entirely, bloody and violent and completely beyond his medical expertise. Unfortunately, he's still obligated to try to change it, a puzzle of fate that will drag him through the guilty secrets of a college town, heading towards a hypothermic end on the snowfields beneath the Continental Divide. Join Josh, armed with little more than wry humor and an angry wife, the fearless Linda, as he leaves the everyday tragedies of medicine on a hallucinatory journey from shadows into light. Barry Burnett is a doctor and writer in Boulder, Colorado, and has absolutely no metaphysical premonitions about his patients. He has written numerous health articles, the Zen of Science column, and the novels Resonance, Thrilling Romance, and the upcoming How To Live Forever (a very fictional guide).
