Heat Without Light: Book 1 of the Acumen Series

By Daniel R. Jones

Retirement will have to wait!

Richie Phillips has made a career of writing meaningless fluff pieces for the Community Section of The Sentinel in the Podunk town of Farrington, Iowa. He's spent his whole life waiting for his first big break: the story that would kick-start a thrilling career in investigative journalism.

But at 59-years-old, it's time to admit the big break might never come.

That is, until his paranormal-obsessed friend asks him to travel to Tampa. Their mission? To interview Bud Perdue, a self-proclaimed guru and ex-Scientologist. Bud claims indisputable proof of his own telepathic powers.

As Richie races to discover the origin of Bud's ESP, he soon attracts the attention of a stalker, hell-bent on ensuring his story doesn't get out. Bud starts a full-fledged cult, and Richie inches towards the truth...only to find that he's entangled in something much bigger than he ever thought possible.

Will the truth set Richie free? Or will it get him killed?
