Fiction. Translated from the French by Brian Harper. "FOAM OF THE DAZE is a novel like no other, a sexy, innocent, smart and sweet cartoon of a world which then begins, little by little, to bleed real blood until, in the end, the blood turns out to be our own. I read it nearly thirty years ago in its previous incarnation as Mood Indigo and I loved it then; it's still one of my favorite books in the whole world"--Jim Krusoe. "A kind of jazzy, cheerful, sexy, sci-fi mid-20th century Huysmans. Check it out. There is just no place like France"--Richard Hell.

Three years after the serial killer Mobius murdered FBI agent Tess McCullum's lover, he resurfaces in Los Angeles with a chemical nerve weapon that could kill thousands, and Tess is determined to do whatever it takes to stop him.

Tess McCallum, a skilled FBI agent, is reluctantly paired with a new partner while pursuing a ruthless kidnapper known as the "Rain Man." This criminal traps victims in Los Angeles' storm drain system, demanding ransom payments from the city. Meanwhile, Abby Sinclair, a freelance security expert with a knack for unconventional methods, is also on the case, aiding a potential target who distrusts law enforcement. As a rainstorm looms and time runs out, the duo must collaborate to unravel the mystery and save lives in a gripping tale filled with suspense and unexpected twists.

Caitlin Osborn was only ten years old when he came for her the first time. Now, 16 years later, LAPD Officer Osborn still suffers from her inescapable childhood fears--made all the more real by a recent wave of bizarre murders. She can see his shadow moving outside her window. She can feel his footsteps--and she recognizes his foul whispers.

Working alone, Abby Sinclair hunts stalkers, infiltrating their lives, uncovering their dark desires, and bringing them down, and her new prey is her next-door neighbor, Raymond Hickle, whose twisted obsession with a beautiful TV news anchor is about to explode.
