There are only two days out of the year that I do not post anything to Book Basset, and this weekend is it. Tomorrow is the big day. The event that has actually caused me to run without a clown chasing me, or an ice cream truck trying to get away from me. Tough Mudder (10 Miles/ 20 obstacles)! I am not quite in the shape I thought I would be though. I thought for sure I would be thinner, stronger, and a whole lot healthier. Ya..not exactly. In fact last night I found a Peppermint Pattie hiding way in the back my kitchen cupboard and without a second thought I ate it. Where did it come from? Whose was it? How on Earth did it get forgotten? Don’t know, don’t care. It was delicious.

For some, death is not the end. Thanks to modern medicine, they are given a second chance. A second chance to live, and another chance to kill.
When Peter Nicolson, a reporter with the Edinburgh Evening News, is almost killed by a gang leader out to make his mark, the only way to save his life is through a double kidney transplant.

Yet as he recovers, his personality begins to change, and he discovers that he can see visions of unsolved killings committed by a murderer that no one has ever caught. Peter sets out to solve the murders, to track down the killer, and find out the truth behind the visions that he sees. As time progresses, and as Peter uncovers a trail of death that stretches across the United Kingdom and Europe, the makers of ‘SP-X4’ watch his actions from afar, anxious that he will uncover the incredible truth behind their new drug treatment, and conspiring to make sure he does not succeed in revealing it to the world.
