Haunted by dreams of an all-encompassing red tide, Odd is pulled inexorably to the sea, to a small California coastal town where nothing is as it seems. But a true hero, however humble, must persevere. But no mere human being was ever meant to face the darkness that now stalks the world–not even one as oddly special as Odd Thomas.Īfter grappling with the very essence of reality itself, after finding the veil separating him from his soul mate, Stormy Llewellyn, tantalizingly thin yet impenetrable, Odd longed only to return to a life of quiet anonymity with his two otherworldly sidekicks-his dog Boo and a new companion, one of the few who might rival his old pal Elvis. With great gifts comes the responsibility to meet great challenges. Through tragedy and triumph, exhilaration and heartbreak, word of Odd Thomas’s gifts filtered far beyond Pico Mundo, attracting unforgettable new friends-and enemies of implacable evil. A fry cook named Odd was rumored to have the extraordinary ability to communicate with the dead. The legend began in the obscure little town of Pico Mundo.
