Parallel universes and Greek mythology form an ominous matrix in this story of a teenager who doesn't know which is more real, his dream life or his waking life. Is the Minotaur's maze simply a metaphor for the anger and hopelessness Gregory has felt ever since his father's suicide? Or is it an actual, horrific place? The conjoined plots supply ample suspense as they careen toward intersection.
