In this novel ghosts are the result of the emotions of a traumatic occasion being absorbed by inanimate objects (room, murder weapon etc). Sensitive people can see a re-enactment of the murder recreated in their minds and it appears to them as ghosts. An Oxford professor invents a machine that can read these emotions imprinted on inanimate objects. He recruits 3 post graduate students to help him develop the machine to be used in crime fighting and archaeology. They inadvertently discover a secret that some in the Catholic Church would rather not be revealed and they also discover the identity of a serial killer that is too close for comfort. The resulting chases across country after country results in murder and political intrigue that potentially threatens the very peace of the world.

Bob Arctor is a dealer of the lethally addictive drug Substance D. Fred is the police agent assigned to tail and eventually bust him. To do so, Fred takes on the identity of a drug dealer named Bob Arctor. And since Substance D--which Arctor takes in massive doses--gradually splits the user's brain into two distinct, combative entities, Fred doesn't realize he is narcing on himself. Caustically funny, eerily accurate in its depiction of junkies, scam artists, and the walking brain-dead, Philip K. Dick's industrial-grade stress test of identity is as unnerving as it is enthralling.

With an introduction by D.C. Fontana The Morthans were physically and mentally superior. Descended from humans, they were now, literally, “more-than" human … and considered the human race to be little better than animals. They would stop at nothing to conquer the remaining human-controlled worlds. Formerly a never-filmed script for Star Trek: The Next Generation, this conclusion to the Star Wolf trilogy finds Executive Officer Korie and the crew of the Star Wolf answering a distress call from a mysteriously lifeless ship. On board the Norway, they discover half-wave, half-particle clusters of golden light—and a dead man. The lights are the energy form of bloodworms, a fatal infestation that feeds off the energy of living bodies, which scientists on the Norway have developed for use in the Alliance's war against the Morthans. Officer Korie's struggle between his conscience and his desire for vengeance will determine not only the safety of the Star Wolf, but the fate of the enemies he's sworn to destroy.
