In Daniel Palmer's blistering, fast-paced debut, one man is taken to the edge of sanity in a mind-bending novel of paranoia, deception, and revenge. . .
Charlie Giles is at the top of his game. An electronics superstar, he's sold his startup company to a giant Boston firm, where he's now a senior director. With his dog, Monte, at his side, Charlie is treated like a VIP everywhere he goes.
Then one day, everything in Charlie's neatly ordered world starts to go terrifyingly wrong. His prestigious job and his inventions are wrenched away from him. His family is targeted, and his former employers are dying gruesomely, picked off one by one. Every sign, every shred of evidence, points to Charlie as a cold-blooded killer. And soon Charlie is unable to tell whether he's succumbed to the pressures of work and become the architect of his own destruction., or whether he's the victim of a relentless, diabolical attack.
In a desperate struggle to save his life, Charlie races to uncover the truth, all the while realizing that nothing can be trusted--least of all his own fractured mind. . .
"A roiling plot, insightful characters, clear, intelligent writing. What more could you ask for in a novel? Delirious is one awesome kick-off for an exciting and multi-dimensional talent. It's an electrifying ride, whetting the reader's appetite for more. Daniel Palmer is a writer to watch. This guy is going to be around a long time." --Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author
"Daniel Palmer hits all the right notes in his terrific debut novel, Delirious. Great characterizations, non-stop suspense, and a fiendishly clever plot. On top of that, this may be the most techno-savvy thriller yet. Delirious looks to be the first novel of a long and distinguished career. Terrific stuff." --John T. Lescroart, New York Times bestselling author
"Daniel Palmer delivers a high-speed thrill ride, filled with shocks and mind-bending twists. Delirious is a terrific debut!" --Tess Gerritsen, New York Times bestselling author
"Smart, sophisticated and unsettling...not just a great thriller debut, but a great thriller, period." --Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Palmer fails to make the most of a promising premise in his uneven debut, a psychological thriller set in Massachusetts. Charlie Giles, a top software engineer at SoluCent, has developed InVision, a supersophisticated car entertainment system that's poised to become the next big thing. Anne Pedersen, a low-level SoluCent marketing employee, tips Giles off that one of his superiors, Jerry Schmidt, will argue against a deal with GM to make InVision standard. When Giles crashes an executive team meeting and confronts Schmidt, Schmidt says he's always supported the deal. Giles's inability to prove that Pedersen works for SoluCent or even exists leads to his getting fired. Giles fears he's falling victim to his family history of schizophrenia after finding a note in his own handwriting listing names of SoluCent executives marked for death. While Giles's unsettling and rapid fall from grace intrigues, a hokey ending will strike many as a copout. (Feb.)
