When you gaze into it, the reflection isn’t yours; it blinks when you don’t.

Wonderful Read!
"This book is brilliant and captivating. As I read it there were many "AH HA!" moments as things came together and fell into place. I was astonished at how the author was able to draw me in and hold my attention. I haven't enjoyed reading this much in years. I couldn't put it down. I was able to get the kindle version and couldn't believe my luck that I got that much entertainment for such a small price. I WILL be reading all the other books by this author."

Fantastic!
"Lost between certainty and illusion, her life’s work pillaged and leveraged against her, finally, a thought- provoking captivating techno sci-fi narrative with a refreshingly new intriguing plot. I was held spellbound and fascinated at the turning of every page. Thank you, Yvonne DeBandi, for absconding me and depositing me into the realm of a synaptic optical sanctuary."
