“Former British bobby Jack Chambers travels from London to Chicago to execute the estate of his estranged father Tim, more for personal reasons than financial. He is not the primary inheritor, and will receive his executor’s fee only if he carries out his father’s instructions to the letter. These include the task of publishing and distributing a manuscript entitled Invisibility: A Manual of Light, with an initial print run of 200,000 copies.

According to the late Tim Chambers, learning to see the color indigo is the key to being hidden in plain sight, and opens new doors to perception. The story of Jack’s quest is interspersed with excerpts from his father’s manual.
Jack renews his acquaintance with his half-sister Louise, who has matured considerable since he last saw her at age eleven. Fighting his growing sexual attraction, he asks her to fly Rome with him to help sell one of his father’s apartments and find artist Natalie Shearer, heiress to the bulk of the estate. Once he finds Natalie, he discovers that this dangerous beauty is a former lover of his father’s and a member of his inner circle of the cult of indigo. Jack embarks on a surreal affair with her as he follows the rituals in the manuscript. His world opens to new vistas and disturbing insights.
