Overview

In a near-future Seattle-based world, psychics form a key part of society--filling useful roles in police investigations, fortune-500 companies, anthropology, and anything you can imagine. Nathan Wald, once a child prodigy, now battles with far more human needs. His special talent makes him a human lie detector but he quickly finds that knowing a lie doesn't necessarily give him the truth. Nathan struggles to find his place in society, a society driven in many directions by hate, fear, hidden agendas, and the personally unreachable goal of just being normal. An emotional and compelling read.

Author Information

Oren Hammerquist, originally from the Seattle area, recently completed his Master's degree in English and Creative Writing with Southern New Hampshire University. He also holds a BA in Criminal Justice from AMU and an AA in Liberal Arts from Pierce College. He hopes that his diverse background, including time in the US Army, will contribute to complex plots in all his works. Oren is also married with four children, and at the time of this book, was living in Germany--though only time will tell where he ends up. Hindsights started as a story entitled The Bitter Truth. After advice from his editor on a failed short-story compilation, Oren expanded the 3,000-word story into this novel of approximately 80,000 words. Though a work of science fiction, he hopes his novel is broad enough in its appeal to reach the cross-genre category. A decidedly post-modern thread runs through this title, drawing on the real world to drive this speculative fiction.
