About
The Lost Chord is the eagerly awaited second novel by singer-songwriter-author Ian Thomas. With a storyline that crosses into the realm of the otherworldly, The Lost Chord is certain to captivate the reading public with a compelling story of murder and madness, ancient secrets and modern day intrigue.
The Lost Chord is an incredible journey into the uncharted waters that reside on the other side of physical existence. To return to an earthly plane from such a journey is to face the daunting struggle of learning to live with a knowledge no human being should possess. In 1847, a Franciscan monk, stumbles on a musical means facilitating consciousness leaving the body. The problem is … getting back!
Not only does his work place many lives in jeopardy in his own time, but when his manuscript surfaces in 1989 the trouble begins all over again. There is a good reason why some of the greatest minds from Plato to Shakespeare have pondered the spiritual nature of music.
“…fast-moving, plot-twisting thriller… also an aspiring novel of ideas, in which the writer… chastises religious intolerance…and envisions in detail a ‘life after life’… Ian Thomas has created a fascinating world and a worthy page-turner for a winter's night.” - Peter Feniak, The Globe & Mail
“…Thomas finds himself in The Lost Chord… a perfect combination of musical notes… to send a spirit to the heavens… a portal to another world or spiritual parallel… gothic thriller in a Da Vinci Code sense... confronting all the big issues – religion, spirituality, love, death, life and the reasons for our very existence…” - Graham Rockingham, The Hamilton Spectator
