"The writer brings each of the characters to life so much, it leaves you missing them at the end." The boy, David, has an imaginary friend called Henry. David's mother was happy for him to have an imaginary friend when was very young but as he grew older she became more and more concerned about him. Is Henry an imaginary friend, or a ghost, or is David hearing voices? David has exceptionally good academic skills and exceptionally bad social skills. David was bullied when he first started school. Henry lived in the next street to David but a century earlier. Henry fought in the First World War. "I was hooked pretty early on..." "The tale contains humour, kindness and sadness in equal measure." Set in a post-industrial town in the North of England the book describes the experience of two young men born a hundred years apart. Henry joined the King's Royal Rifles at the age of 19 and saw service in India until the war broke out in 1914. He arrived in Belgium on Christmas Eve and saw action in the Second Battle of Ypres. David lost his father in a road accident as a baby, was bullied as a young child and suffered from depression. It helped David to talk to Henry about being bullied, about his girlfriend, about the problems of growing up in the modern world. Henry could tell David about the death of his best friend in a communication trench, how an officer led his platoon into an ambush and why he rescued the officer from no man's land, and how he felt when his son was killed in Salerno. David had very few friends apart from Henry. Having an imaginary friend is a comfort to a young child but if the imaginary friend becomes real - is it a ghost you are talking to or are you suffering a mental illness? The book is full of humour and the plot has many twists and turns and is not resolved until the final few pages. Issac Newton and Ludwig Wittgenstein are mentioned in the book along with Ludwig's brother who was a concert pianist who only had one arm.

As the foundation of everything he has believed in begins to crumble, his relationships with three passionate women - a prostitute, a healer, and the Oskell empress, herself - provide guidance through his moral and physical struggles. Each confidant offers profound, but often conflicting, insights while promising the way to something he never thought possible, fulfillment. Parental Discretion is Advised

Jake Myers grew up hearing stories about the hauntings on The Hill, but he never believed them. When locals traded tales about the spirits who inhabited an old tuberculosis sanatorium, he chalked them up to urban legends. There's no such thing as the supernatural... or so Jake thought.Jake jumps at the chance to join a ghost tour of the sanatorium, not because he believes in that sort of thing, but because he's fascinated by the history of the buildings. He has no idea just how close to that history he'll get. Jake falls down a staircase and wakes up to discover he's somehow stumbled more than sixty years into the past. Jake has no idea how he arrived in 1948 and even less of an idea of how to get home. The only thing he's confident about is that claiming to be a visitor from the future would surely land him in a padded room.Forced to adapt to his circumstances, he takes a job at the sanatorium and vows to keep his head down until he figures out what's going on. Against his better judgement, he befriends some of the patients and staff. He's immediately struck by the strength and resilience of the people around him and soon finds himself torn between the past and his present. But the suspicions of one wary doctor may destroy his chances for happiness in either.
