Danny Deer was a young man just out of high school and ready to take on the world cruising with his buddies and girlfriend and racing cars made for an ideal life. But when one of Danny's friends crashes his car while drag racing, life suddenly starts to become real. Then the Vietnam draft of 1969 changed everything even more. Danny and his buddy enlisted in the marines and started an adventure that would change everyone's life, but not necessarily for the better. When they were training in boot camp and faced the challenges of Vietnam, their families were at home worrying about what could happen to their loved ones. His fiancee, Jenny, was doing all she could at home to start up their new life as a married couple when he came home. But dreams can be shattered in an instant. Anyone who has a loved one in the service knows the fear and pain of answering your front door and seeing uniformed officers standing there holding their hats. When Danny and his squad were trapped in the jungle of Vietnam, he knew he needed to think of a way to save everybody even if it meant sacrificing himself.

Now, the Curtain has come down and the dead no longer need him to facilitate their vengeance. As the air turns amber, the shadows deepen, and murderous revenants begin to stalk the streets, Tim and the woman he loves must race to find Peregrine, the man they believe responsible for the sundering of the veil between the living and the dead. While the sins of the past intertwine with the present and vicious entities old and new arise to claim dominion, Tim must learn the secrets of The Stage and uncover the genesis of those who created it before The Stage becomes all there is. But just as there are enemies in Tim's dark new world, so too are there allies: The Conduits, people possessed of similar gifts who share a common goal: to find and destroy Peregrine before Peregrine destroys them all. In the final battle, Tim will fight not only for the woman he loves and the life she carries within her, but for the very fate of mankind. It is a battle that will transcend realms, cost lives, and at last bring Tim Quinn face to face with his nemesis. NEMESIS is the epic novel-length conclusion of the acclaimed Timmy Quinn series, which began in 2004 with the Bram Stoker Award-winning novella THE TURTLE BOY.
