Media Reviews
"A fast-moving thriller...a deconstructionist detective story in which every scrap of evidence leads further away from the truth."
-- Kirkus
"A winning mixture of Crichton's technology-laced plots and Thomas Harris' tormented characters."
-- Booklist
"Anybody who is computer-literate and who owns a television set will be fascinated by Larsen's tale of a man who stumbles onto a cunning high-tech plan for mass manipulation of opinion in the 21st century." -- Richard Lipez

Publisher's Notes
Uncertainty marks the American debut of the exciting young Danish novelist Michael Larsen. It is a tautly plotted, darkly erotic psychological thriller that presents a disturbing vision of life in the post-computer age. Martin Molberg, a journalist with a history of mental instability, is suspected of murdering his girlfriend, Monique. To clear his name he must track down the real killer. In the process he uncovers evidence that Monique was leading a double life: a photo of her engaged in kinky sex; an inexplicable deposit of millions in their joint bank account; a cryptic note from a man named Pascal. Molberg's obsessive search takes him from Copenhagen to Los Angeles. Along the way, he stumbles into the realm of high technology gone awry and a web of intrigue and murder involving Hollywood, the National Security Agency, high-tech pornographers, and image manipulators. Downing Dexedrine and Thorazine with scotch chasers, he begins to question his sense of reality as he sifts through circuitous and contradictory evidence. The more he discovers, the harder it becomes for him to distinguish what is real from what is not.

Toyer
by Gardner McKay
Los Angeles. There are two seasons, day and night. Toyer. He is a natural response to Los Angeles. There has never been anything like Toyer, but of course, each time there never is. Each time, the newest cutting-edge lunatic has the same refreshing aspect: he is unimaginable. Maude Garance. She is a doctor, thirty-six years old. Her face is complicated by woven scars of fatigue, she is on the brink of a breakdown caused by a disorder in her patients - Toyer's victims -that she cannot cure. Doctor T. Chief-of-service at Maude's hospital. Married too long to the wrong wife. All he can do now is to love Maude without mentioning it. Sara Smith. A reporter. A story, any story, is sent from God and God has sent her one. Maude dislikes her on sight. Jim O'Land. Sara Smith's boss at the Herald, a man easily followed. He publishes Toyer's thoughts. Unprecedented in journalism, he says, a first. The Uncastables. Three comfortably unemployed actors. Telen Gacey came to Hollywood on a whim and is ready to leave. Peter Matson has star quality but cannot act. Billy Waterland, a would-be comic, ex-gymnast, dreams of stardom. Jimmy O. A pale ginger cat with a direct stare, humble. Maude called him a savior in cat's clothing who'd come to rescue her. She was right. These are the players in Gardner McKay's first novel, Toyer. Their lives intersect and intrude on one another with terrifying results to produce a novel that is as compelling as it is rewarding.
