Dreams of April Ten

The story starts dramatically.   Doctor Samuel Wong is just sitting on his boat in the sun, relaxing and looking around to enjoy the view when suddenly he starts to feel so terrible hot and smoke comes from his body...   Doctor Samuel Wong seems to have SHC, Spontaneous Human Combustion, in other words, he bursts into flames and all that's left after a few minutes are his ashes!

Scott Adams is having weird dreams lately, always about the same girl.   Only she isn't part of his dream, but it's more like it's her dream and he's looking into it...  He doesn't know who the girl is but at night she's always there with him.    So he decides to go looking for her to find out who she is and what exactly his connection to her is.   Scott and his buddy Charlie decide to go and find April Ten.

Can dreams come true?   In Dreams of April Ten, they sure do...

But why are the characters in this book always having the same horrible dreams?   People spontaneously burst into flames.   Why and how?    April seems to move into many people's dreams, and it's no fun.   Once she's inside your dreams, you can't get her out anymore.

Kitty seems to understand more about this strange situation, but she can't stop April Ten. 

With Dreams of April Ten, Stephen LaFevers has written a very special thriller, lots of suspense, but not in the usual way.   It's suspense factor 10!!!   You can hardly put this book aside once you begin to read, you want to know what exactly is happening and why.   The SHC's are written in a way that you can almost see it happening, very frightening.   If you don't believe in the existence of SHC you might just change your opinion after reading Dreams of April Ten.

Stephen LaFevers has written a medical thriller that, without any doubt, deserves  5 Flags!

*Spontaneous Human Combustion is the ability of the human body to blister or smoke or otherwise ignite in the absence of an external identifiable known source of ignition. In classic spontaneous human combustion the body burns itself more completely than can normally be achieved at a crematorium. The fires are internal in origin.
