From back cover:

PEACE is the life story of Alden Dennis Weer, an eccentric old man living out his last days and fantasies in an obscure Midwestern town. It is also much more -- an extraordinary combination of the mythic vision of fantasy and the thrilling, disquieting suspense of a mastercrafted ghost story.

PEACE will awaken your dreams -- and put you in touch with a magical reality that lies just below the surface of everyday life.
