      About This Book

      "Wouldn't it be funny if they were real?"
      "Shiny red men?"
      "What if I were the sane one and everyone else was mad?"

      One night, the shiny guys visit 15-year-old Colin Lapsley. They don't speak, but Colin can read their thoughts. They want him to pay for the terrible thing that he has done. When the shiny guys won't go away, Colin is admitted to ward 44. There he discovers an alien world, a powerful weapon, a gentle giant, and a girl who may be able to see what he can see. The Shiny Guys is a dark, sometimes funny novel about how fantasy and reality can merge, especially when electricity is involved.
