Fulcrum (Nexus 1)

Volume 1 of The Nexus - First Satan

Thomas Lewis returns to his family home to attend his father's funeral, pursued by 'voices' and 'incidents' that have tormented him all his life. His marriage ruined, his children estranged, his sanity precarious, he fears that someone - or something - wants him dead.

His young niece, Gemma Lewis, behaves suspiciously at the family gathering and he soon learns that she is both a natural telepath and telekinetic and reveals that she has been guided and protected by an 'angel'. Gemma forces him to embrace his gifts but as he does so, he is cursed by stigmata - arcane phenomena that set both of them apart as freaks of nature and brings them to the attention of the sinister Department of Security and the right-wing media.

The moral and metaphysical opposites to the Lewises - the feared Sheppards - renew their ancient family vendetta. The eldest, Paul Sheppard has his own 'angel' - a paranormal entity of many names: Ahriman, Ban-Sidhe, Ba'al, the First Satan - which possesses him, driving him to a final, fatal confrontation with Thomas Lewis and his extraordinary niece.

Although a complete novel in its own right, Fulcrum can be read as the first volume of the Nexus.

About the Author

Paul D.E. Mitchell (b1956) has enjoyed a varied career in chemistry, computing, teaching, lecturing, music (as a bassist in numerous bands), and served as a senior Cardiff councillor for 10 years and was elected to the Cariff ward of Fairwater in May 2012. First as a single-father and then as a carer for elderly relatives, he retired from the private sector and politics (temporarily) to concentrate on poetry and bringing to life a complex near-future sci-fi/paranormal series of nine books (set in three trilogies) and three spin-off novels as well as several other genres. Light-Father is doing extraordinarily well and may be made into a film or an anime. Paul is also publishing and editing works by others of a co-operative of independent authors based in Wales and will soon take on a micro-publisher called Wuggles Publishing.
