About the author

Kirk Voclain
Kirk Voclain is a South Louisiana novelist and professional photographer. For more than forty years he has told stories with light and with words. Kirk does for a living what most call a hobby (photography), and he does for a hobby what most call a living (writing). He shoots portraits, real estate, and commercial work, and he has taught many working photographers. He writes with a photographer’s eye, fast and focused, always chasing the detail that reveals character. He lives in Houma, Louisiana.

About the book

At 3:33 a.m., a photographer wakes in his darkroom to the sting of fixer and a text that says, “Bring your camera. Come alone.” The message pulls him into his own fiction. The only way out is a single image that hides a code inside digital noise. The target expects Reed Sawyer. They do not expect the author.

New Orleans sets the stage. A rain slick garage by the Superdome. An SUV, two men, one woman, and a camera with one chance to live. Make the shot, bury the message in the grain, and deliver it to BCOX.

By morning the file has a name that is not his. The metadata says Author: The Architect. The laptop wakes and begins to type on its own.

This is a compact, mind bending thriller where photography does more than capture truth, it manipulates it. Fans of clean, cinematic writing, New Orleans noir, and the Double Exposure universe will feel right at home. The final question lingers long after you close the book. Who is writing whom?
