OFF COURSE

Now I've got the real spine of the story — Jacob Hale, seven years old in 1969, watching the moon landing and hearing that a light had followed the astronauts home, then spending fifty years chasing it into the Appalachians toward something that only pretends to be what he's looking for. Here's a retailer-ready description in your Unseen Truth voice: In the summer of 1969, seven-year-old Jacob Hale watched a man walk on the moon — and heard that something had followed the astronauts home. A light. Something that kept pace. Something that watched. He spent the next fifty years trying to find it again. Jacob's obsession with the unexplained cost him more than he ever stopped to count — the quiet years, a marriage worn thin, the slow drift away from everyone who loved him. Then the search that consumed his life finally calls him onto a lonely road in the Appalachian Mountains, toward a shimmering light that seems, at last, to be answering back. But not every light leads home. What waits in those mountains wears familiar voices. It knows what Jacob longs for. It has been keeping pace with him far longer than he ever realized — and the way out will be nothing like the way he came in. A gripping supernatural thriller about obsession, deception, and the long road back, Off Course asks the question underneath every search for something more: when the light finally speaks your name, will you know Who is really calling? An Unseen Truth novel.
