Dear Librarian, A couple of years ago, I read a newspaper article about mysterious lights that appear on many nights outside the town of Marfa in west Texas. They bob and weave, float and waver, blink and glow, appear and vanish. Scientists have come from all over the world to study the lights, but no one has ever explained them. I couldn't stop thinking about them. In THE SHIMMER, similar inexplicable lights attract hundreds of spectators each night. Not merely curious, these onlookers feel compelled to gaze at the lights. When police officer Dan Page's wife disappears, he uncovers a deadly government secret dating back to the First World War. The lights are more dangerous than anyone ever imagined, but even more deadly are those who try to exploit forces beyond their control. I used numerous historical accounts associated with the actual lights. I hope you enjoy. David Morrell www.DavidMorrell.net
