Brightside: A Psychological Thriller
About this ebook
Across the country, people who can read minds are being rounded up. Joe is one of them. His ability lands him in Brightside, a secluded mountain town sold as a peaceful refuge and run like a prison. The residents have homes, jobs, relationships, and no privacy at all. Everyone around Joe can hear the thoughts he can't control, and the people running Brightside are watching for the first sign of resistance.
A new relationship gives him a reason to hope. But hope is dangerous in a place built to expose every secret. As Joe learns what Brightside really is, he has to decide how much of himself he can protect, and what freedom will cost.
Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, Black Mirror, and psychological science-fiction thrillers.
In Brightside, the walls aren't the only thing keeping you trapped. Your own mind may do the rest. Book 1 of the Brightside Saga.

About the author
My writing covers a wide range, with fiction being my favorite to create, twenty or so titles under my belt. There are 25 titles in my interactive Try Not to Die series and 30 more in the works. I also have two nonfiction titles, both inspired by a reckless lifestyle, playing Ivy League football, and battering my brain as an unsuccessful MMA fighter and boxer. Unlocking the Cage is the largest sociological study of MMA fighters to date and TBI or CTE aims to spread awareness and hope to others that suffer with traumatic brain injury symptoms.
I live in Falls Church, Virginia with my wife, two kids, five cats, and one demon. Derek the Demon pops in whenever he’s bored and makes special appearances on my social media.
