His nightmares always come true.

Private investigator Jacob Daniels wakes from the same dream every night—a man drowning in a pool, hands severed, blood turning the water pink. He tells himself it's just another nightmare.

Then a client walks through his door.

Jackson Hunter is being blackmailed. Madeline Stafford is receiving death threats. Two cases, one building, too many secrets. When masked gunmen crash an open house with a message no one understands, Daniels realizes someone is playing a game where everyone knows the rules but him.

Now bodies are piling up, his psychic "feelings" have gone silent, and somewhere in Minneapolis, someone is turning his nightmare into reality. To stop them, Daniels must navigate a maze of corporate corruption, religious fanatics, and international arms dealers—all while trying to figure out which client is lying.

In a city where defense contractors worship profit and religious groups deal in death, the real enemy might be the one person Daniels never suspects.

Some variables can't be controlled. Some nightmares can't be stopped.

Can Daniels trust his gift when it matters most? Or will his next case be his last?

Dive into the mind of a psychic detective where nightmares become reality. Will Daniels save his clients before his visions consume him? Or will the darkness in his dreams finally claim him?

A.W. Powers

The characters in the world of A.W. Powers come to him in dreams and when he is mowing the lawn. He can't decide if he should quit mowing or go into business and mow more lawns. The characters want their stories told and have chosen him to be their mouthpiece. He believes his characters have many of the features he desires but is sadly lacking. Even the bad guys. Powers spends his time failing to understand the behaviors of people, but appreciative of what they do, knowing he couldn't make it up. No one can. But it's all material. Fortunately, he spends his time writing, not scratching his head and creating a bald spot.

The Psychic Guardian Angel series arrived in a series of nightmares. Powers recognized the literary value of the nightmares, and the therapeutic value of using them in his writing. If there are any extended streaks of low creativity, like writer's block or too much fun, the nightmares get worse and will even repeat themselves until making their way into a notebook or file for future use and he is back at the keyboard. Sleep can be difficult enough without having characters and plotlines nagging at you, requiring resolution or exorcism.
