LOOKING THROUGH THE REARVIEW MIRROR

What if the hardest person to convince that you are gone... is yourself?

Ryan Sullivan has built a life meant to be admired.

He is a celebrated architect with a magnificent estate, an exotic collection of birds, glamorous friends, and a longtime partner who once knew every hidden part of him. From the outside, Ryan's world appears flawless. Behind the closed doors, his relationship with Thomas is quietly collapsing, his medication has become a dangerous escape, and the man everyone envies is beginning to disappear inside his own life.

Then Ryan finds Oberon.

The rare blue macaw is waiting for him at the end of a mysterious late-night advertisement. Against Thomas's desperate warnings, Ryan drives into a violent storm to bring the bird home.

On the return journey, one final telephone conversation pulls Ryan and Thomas back toward the love they thought they had lost.

Then the road vanishes.

Ryan awakens convinced he survived the accident. He returns home, resumes his work, attends the parties of his two best friends, and moves through the world with the same sharp humor and commanding presence he has always possessed.

But people are beginning to look through him.

Time moves forward without him. Thomas grows older. New friends forget his face. Mirrors reveal things Ryan refuses to see. And Oberon keeps repeating the one word Ryan cannot accept:

Gone.

From rain-darkened roads to pulsing dance floors, from the coast of Spain to a final sunset in Ibiza, Looking Through the Rearview Mirror is a haunting and deeply emotional supernatural thriller about love, grief, denial, and the terrible distance between surviving and letting go.

Some souls are lost because no one remembers them.

Others remain lost because they cannot stop looking back.
