by Jack Birnbaum

January 2002 Fiction ISBN 059526011X

In the bitterly cold winter of 2008, Dr. Daniel Newman is still coming to terms with the loss of his wife in the horrific “events” that struck New York City three years before. Now his brilliant but troubled eleven-year-old niece Kate is developing a strange collection of symptoms. Daniel’s efforts to find the cause of her affliction in time to save her life will lead him into a struggle against a government that has its own terrible secrets to protect, to the promise of a new love, and eventually to a confrontation with the twin darkness’s of an unimaginable manmade hell and his own memories. Filled with unexpected humor, fascinating scientific speculations and memorable characters, The Winter of Visions and Forgetting is a frighteningly prophetic and emotionally powerful novel of our near future. And a warning to us all.
