We've all had those moments when we felt like we were being watched--unseen eyes hovering nearby, taking in our every move.
That creepy feeling becomes reality in T. L. Hines latest novel, The Unseen.
The main character, Lucas, has an interesting hobby. He likes to watch people without them knowing it. He is a loner who spends his free time sneaking into places that most people don't even know exist. From his unseen vantage points, he quietly watches people go about their More...

Have you ever felt being watched?
You had this creepy feeling all of a sudden, so you turn around. Unsatisfied, you scan every face in the room until you eased back.

Back to the redheaded receptionist. “I… don’t know,” she stammered. “I just feel like… someone’s watching.”

Have you ever felt like someone was watching you? Have you ever looked up or turned around and found no one there? Have you ever felt the eyes of someone who wasn’t there boring into you? T.L. Hines has brought new meaning to these feelings of paranoia.
Above ceiling tiles, behind closet doors, and atop elevators hides Lucas; watching. Lucas watches others while they work and interact. He creates histories and stories for these individuals. He takes a memento from each of his targets; More...

The Unseen
By T. L. Hines
Thomas Nelson
386 Pages
The Unseen – Eerily Weird! Strangely compulsive! No matter how you describe T. L. Hines’ latest book to other readers, you’re going to fumble on adjectives. It’s not the typical horror, nor is it suspenseful or a good mystery. It has great action and keeps you turning the pages and in many ways it’s fascinating! But it is definitely—weird!

The premise of the story, a man (Lucas) who lives vicariously by spying on people from inside walls, duct work, and crawl spaces, making up complicated histories/lives for them in his mind, sounds interesting enough. Add in the wrinkle that he runs into a group of people called the “Creep Club” who seem to share his peculiar interest. Throw in the twist that our “hero” has a mysterious background (was he really an orphan? was he part of some weird scientific study he can’t remember?) and is bein

For many years Lucas Freund has lived his life by mostly being unseen. He has a fascination with hiding small nooks and crannies in buildings all over the city watching strangers through hidden peep holes. He makes up elaborate stories about their lives that give him comfort in between the times when he makes a connection with them. The connection happens when someone either feels his presence without seeing him or when someone seemingly makes eye contact with him again without seeing him.

Before reading The Unseen, I had never read a “noir bizarre” book. In fact, I can’t say that I knew there even was such a genre (which I guess isn’t so unusual, since T. L. Hines might be the only writer of said genre). I also had no idea there was a culture of “creepers,” people who crawl around in unseen spaces, spying on people in their workplaces, restaurants, and even their homes.
Because I know little about this culture, I have no idea whether or not T. L. Hines’ descriptions o More...

If you've ever felt like you're being watched, but no one is there take a closer look. It could be, you aren't alone. Someone like Lucas could be lurking behind that wall or above the ceiling tiles, observing you as you go about your daily tasks or your job.
That's what Lucas does. He watches people when he's not working as a dishwasher at a local Washington DC restaurant. He's an urban explorer, as familiar with Washington's underground network of tunnels and abandoned buildings, as More...

"They" are watching... Are you being watched as we speak?
If you read CREEPERS by David Morrell (and if you didn't and are in the mood for great suspense, then run to your nearest library and get it!), then you will again be drawn into the world of urban explorers, aka infiltrators--that is those who find their way into abandoned buildings, condemned areas, and other sites that are off-limits to anyone human.

This is the first book that I have read of T.L. Hines and it was pretty good. It had so many twist and turns that I couldn't keep up with who was the good guys and who was the bad guys. It does leave you with that creepy feeling that you are always being watched.

This book was an interesting concept. Never read anything like it. I liked the story overall and I love the writer. The plot was a bit of a stretch...but it's not supposed to be realistic anyway. If you like weird...go for it!

This is another book that really should get 3.5 stars, but won't.
Gah...a GREAT writer...yet how can a book be so well written but say so little??
Great set up, great characters, great twists...yet the payoff was so 'oh' as opposed to "OH!!!!" when you finally get to the gist of what is really going on.
Waking Lazarus was sooooooo good. Hines other books so far have been good, but really lack the 'oomph' that makes a great 'bizarre noir' novel (not t

I didn't care for this book very much. Although, it was nothing like what I thought it would be, I continued to read it and give it a fair chance. This book was extremely odd and at times fairly creepy as well. Even though I didn't care for the story very much, it did keep me wanting to know what was going to happen next. Lasty, as in this book, the idea of people in the walls of my home or work is enough to give me nightmares. This book was creepy but also weird...Way too weird for me.

This book went nowhere for me. It is "McKay's bound". I will give the author one more try as I've already purchased another book by him.
