Era como si el cuadro la hubiera llamado, obligándola a detenerse. Y al leer la inscripción del dorso, "Rose Madder", supo que tenía que ser suyo, el adorno perfecto para su recién estrenado piso de mujer libre. Porque tras años de maltratos, por fin Rosie Daniels había abandonado a su marido y emprendido una nueva vida en otra ciudad. Pero es imposible no dejar pistas y Norman, el brutal policía con quien se había casado, inicia la caza sistemática e implacable de su mujer. Cada vez está más y más cerca, y Rosie advierte,no sin temor, que su única aliada es esa figura pintada en el cuadro, que la invita a pasar a su lado de la realidad.

The Earth was in shambles after the final quake had leveled the cities. For Mal Irish the last hold on reality was the embossed gold coin he had taken from the pocket of the dead man -- the man who with his last breath had told him of mastodons buried in ice and men who weren't human. Once in possession of the coin, Mal found himself on a mysterious quest which led him to discover even stranger things -- the girl who spoke the language of another world, the city under the ocean floor, and the deadly little men who followed him. He was in the power of something beyond his understanding, and he meant to find out its source before it put him to its own unfathomable uses.

Immortality is just a dream, but with the Scheffing process, the extremely wealthy can purchase the next best thing. For an exorbitant fee, the Scheffing Institute will make a copy of your mind's persona, hold it in storage until death, then transplant it into sublayers of the brain of a willing--& paying--host. The result for the host is immediate access to the persona's memories, knowledge, experiences & judgment. For the persona, it means full consciousness & thought-communication with the host, but without physical control of the host's body. When this futuristic tale unfolds, the brilliant, powerful multi-billionaire Paul Kaufmann has been dead for months. Institute administrator Francesco Santoliquido must make the decision of assigning Kaufmann's persona to a compatible host. With a personality as strong as Kaufmann, Santoliquido must be wary of the chance that the persona could take over the host's body--known as "going dybbuk." The only two men strong enough to control Kaufmann's persona are the ones who could benefit from it the most: Paul's nephew & current executor of the Kaufmann empire, Mark Kaufmann--& Mark's primary business rival, John Roditis of Roditis Securities. A secret struggle for possession of Kaufmann's persona takes an unexpected turn when Mark's 16-year-old daughter Risa gets involved.
