Not From Around Here

"Sometimes things go better than you think, and sometimes they go
worse.  But they never go the way you expect." ---Alan Trente 
Walk into a world where very real people find themselves in unreal situations, and witness: a young man is sitting in a salon getting his haircut, when he sees someone waving to him in the mirror.  He looks around and realizes...the man waving is not in the room.....  A college student meets a beautiful girl that wants to fulfill all his fantasies, but first he must join her club, and the initiation...is a horror.  A man reaches out to his mother, he tries to connect, but she's just not the same anymore. 
This is the stuff of dreams and nightmares, including:  One man's life is in a shambles until a little boy with a special gift reminds him of healing power of friendship.  Aliens plan a tryst in a lovely mountain
setting, but can Earth stand the bliss? A doctor stumbles upon a world-wide conspiracy, but his murder leaves it in the hands of his close friend to get the secret to the government.  An African curse threatens to end a family's bloodline, but the ancient horror, once unleashed, won't stop there....  
From meeting yourself walking down the street to surviving a homicidal groundhog, you'll go places and meet people that are more familiar than you might expect.  You'll go on 18 journeys filled with excitement, suspense and laughter. And it all comes together when you get to know Alan Trente...he's...Not From Around Here.
