In this novel from the legendary Douglas Adams, quirky and bumbling Private Investigator Dirk Gently stumbles upon a million-year-old ghost, wandering the earth and disturbing all its people. What he uncovers is the ghost's desperate plot to go back in time to prevent its own death. But this ghost was no ordinary person, and helping it save itself just might change the modern world as we know it. And not in a good way.

Douglas Adams was born in 1952 and attended Cambridge University. He wrote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, the Universe, and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless, which is part of the Hitchhiker's Trilogy. Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, The Meaning of Liff and The Deeper Meaning of Liff (co-written with John Lloyd), and Last Chance to See (co-written with Mark Carwardine) are among his other works. The Salmon of Doubt, a best-selling compilation, was published posthumously in May 2002. At douglasadams.com, you may learn more about Douglas Adam's life and career.
