Alone, discarded by her family, her only friends the damaged members of her narcotics anonymous meetings ... and the voices in her head.

Through the damaged slice of glass she sees a young boy go running down the aisle of the subway train; when she tries to find the boy no one else has seen him. Rain loses whole chunks of time, and the voices she hears are telling her horrible things. Between reality and nightmare, how far will one person go to save someone they love?

A noise downstairs [large print] : a novel / by Barclay, Linwood,author.(CARDINAL)347719;
College professor Paul Davis is a normal guy with a normal life. Until, driving along a deserted road late one night, he surprises a murderer disposing of a couple of bodies. That's when Paul's "normal" existence is turned upside down. After nearly losing his own life in that encounter, he finds himself battling PTSD, depression, and severe problems at work. His wife, Charlotte, desperate to cheer him up, brings home a vintage typewriter--complete with ink ribbons and heavy round keys--to encourage him to get started on that novel he's always intended to write. However, the typewriter itself is a problem. Paul swears it's possessed and types by itself at night. But only Paul can hear the noise coming from downstairs; Charlotte doesn't hear a thing. And she worries he's going off the rails. Paul believes the typewriter is somehow connected to the murderer he discovered nearly a year ago. The killer had made his victims type apologies to him before ending their lives. Has another sick twist of fate entwined his life with the killer--could this be the same machine? Increasingly tormented but determined to discover the truth and confront his nightmare, Paul begins investigating the deaths himself.

Maybe Paul should just take the typewriter back to where his wife found it. Maybe he should stop asking questions and simply walk away while he can.
