The Running Man By Michael Gerard
Bauer Published by Omnibus Books 2004 |
There had always been the Running Man - always that
phantom from somewhere in the distance, always shuffling relentlessly closer …
Tom Leyton, a reclusive Vietnam veteran, has been the
subject of rumour and gossip for thirty years. When Joseph Davidson, his young neighbour and
a talented artist, is asked to draw a portrait of him, an uneasy relationship
begins to unfold, one that will force each of them to confront his darkest
secrets.
This is a story about how we perceive others, the
judgments we make about them, how we cope with tragedy, and the nature of
miracles.
