FEAR is outstanding psychological science fiction.
As the author says: 'There is one thing which I wish the reader
could keep in mind throughout, and that is: this story is wholly
logical, for all that will appear to the contrary. It is not a very
nice story, nor should it be read alone at midnight— for it is true
that any man might have the following happen to him.
Even you, today,
might lose four hours from your life and follow, then, in the course
of James Lowry.’ For hours—and a hat —were missing from
James Lowry’s life. If he didn’t find them, he’d go mad. And if he
did, he’d die!
With recently discovered final chapter, uncovered from the author’s research papers.
