Doug Beeston is just an ordinary insurance consultant in his mid-thirties, living an unremarkable life in central New York. He enjoys time with his wife and kids, his waistline is expanding perhaps from a bit too much revelry and not enough moving, but that’s pretty normal for a guy his age—until one day, out of the clear blue sky, Doug’s tapped by alien lifeforms to take on an extraordinary mission. The assignment? Hide the human souls they’ve harvested in various locations across Earth—use his prowess as a risk assessor to assure their precious commodity will not go missing.Doug embraces his responsibility with pride, believing he’s playing a crucial role in something far bigger than himself. But as he soon discovers, he’s not just a courier—he’s a pawn. Multiple alien species are locked in a silent, intergalactic war, using Doug as an unwitting middleman in their cosmic chess game. The more he understands his role, the more Doug realizes that the fate of Earth itself may hang in the balance. Channeling Dan Aykroyd’s signature hilarious wit and deep fascination with the supernatural, Soulhider is a high-stakes, wildly thrilling sci-fi ride that only he could write, exploring identity, power, and the unseen forces shaping our world—both terrestrial and otherwise.
