Peter Wiliams approaches afresh the life and music of arguably the most studied of all composers, interpreting both Bach’s life by deconstructing his original Obituary in the light of new information, and his music by evaluating his priorities and irrepressible creative energy. How, though belonging to musical families on both his parents’ sides, did he come to possess so bewitching a sense of rhythm and melody, and a mastery of harmony that established nothing less than a norm in western culture?
"We thought we’d found our haven, a cottage deep in the heart of the forest. Charming, maybe a little run down, but so peaceful. That was the first part of the Magic. Midge’s painting and my music soared to new heights of creativity. That was another part of the Magic. Our love for each other – well, that became the supreme Magic. But the cottage had an alternative side. The Bad Magic."
James True was not there when he died. He returned from an out-of-body experience to find that he’d been murdered and mutilated. He had no body to go back to. But who murdered him? The serial killer terrorizing the city—or someone closer? True had no enemies, at least none that he knew of. To discover the truth, James True must track down his killer. The initial horror of True’s experience is followed by an even greater terror. . .his family are the murderer’s next targets.
