The Watcher

FBI agent Joel Campbell, burnt-out and shell-shocked after years spent chasing serial killers, flees L.A. to begin a new life for himself in Chicago. But five months later, Joel's best laid plans are abruptly cut short when his new hometown becomes the setting for some particularly gruesome murders--murders that could only have been committed by one man: David Allen Griffin. One of Joel's most elusive and cunning nemeses, Griffin has followed his former pursuer to Chicago in order to play a sadistic game of cat and mouse. Taunting Joel with photographs of his intended victims and leaving his crime scenes meticulously free of clues in order to keep the police at bay, Griffin derives as much pleasure out of watching Joel react to every movement as watching his victims die. But when Griffin moves into Joel's inner circle, Joel must quickly find some way to stop him before someone close to him becomes the next one to die.

Pig Earth

Pig Earth traces a sequence of conditions through which consciousness emerges, organises, and ultimately fractures under its own weight. It follows the slow organisation of mind from instinct into structure, from structure into consciousness, only for this awareness to rupture, turning back upon the organism that hosts it. If evolution tends toward efficiency, then consciousness appears excessive. If it tends toward survival, then consciousness appears compromised. The conscious animal becomes the animal that hesitates, the animal that suffers its own awareness, the animal for whom existence is no longer given but must be continually reckoned with. In this sense, consciousness may be less a culmination than a misstep: not the enlightenment of the organism, but its undoing.
