Newburg, North Carolina, 1966. Der junge Künstler David jobbt als Sanitäter in der Notaufnahme. Dort trifft er Anna zum ersten Mal, als sie wegen einer Überdosis irgendwelcher Drogen behandelt wird. Ihre ungewöhnliche Schönheit, ihre Ausstrahlung werfen ihn um; für ihn ist es Liebe auf den ersten Blick. Süchtig nach ihr, zieht er in die WG, in der Anna lebt. Aber Anna hat einen Freund, den Drogendealer Larry. Eines Nachts wird Larry tot aufgefunden. Ein Roman voller Spannung und Besessenheit; eine mitreißende Geschichte von grenzenloser Liebe und bitterer Rache.

Rock yawned. "Gotta get moving," Rock said. A couple of hundred million years went by. A rock is always slow to take action. A rock watches an oak grow from a sapling to a towering tree, and it's a flash and a dazzle in the mind of a rock. What was that? Rock thinks. Or maybe, Huh?That's how Zod Wallop starts. Harry Gainesborough wrote and drew the story three years ago, before his daughter drowned. Now he writes nothing. Raymond Story read Zod Wallop while he was a patient at Harwood Psychiatric. Now the book means everything to him - so much so that he'd like to meet its author and live out its events. In fact, Zod Wallop means so much to Raymond that he has taken great pains to escape the institution and is now journeying to Harry Gainesborough's house with his young wife, Emily, in tow.These odd doings alone would be enough to unsettle Harry, but they're compounded by other coincidences. Bizarre coincidences. Occurrences that lead Harry to believe that Zod Wallop is actually happening.
