This is a great teen mystery, with a break-neck pace, characters you relate to, and some interesting twists along the way. I confess, I love the teen-mystery-with-supernatural-undertones genre, but this is definitely a stand-out.

Double Vision is a compelling story that starts out as a teen mystery, then takes on science fiction tones that add another layer of urgency. Haley is a believable character, and you worry with her as she puzzles out the differences in the parallel world and attempts to prevent the events that happened in that world from repeating in hers. An excellent story!

It all started with The Watcher! Haley was with her family at a restaurant when her eyes locked with his. At first glance he looked like an ordinary teen, but his eyes radiated danger and menace. Bravely Haley corned him only to have him vanish! By accident, the guy had left behind a pair of glasses with reflective dark lenses and seven wings carved in the frames.

When Haley wore the glasses it all looked like the world she knew, however, much was different. For example, cats do NOT wear collars that allowed them to talk and ask you to scratch them behind their ears, right? Wary of the sunglasses, Haley was unable to decide whether to destroy them or keep using them.

Haley knew she simply HAD to figure out what the glasses really were and how to work them. The glasses were her only hope to prevent a murder.

I have found that when I see a book with the names L.J. Singleton OR Linda Joy Singleton there is no need to read the back. No matter what it is about, it is going to be great. This story is no exception. It contains a fascinating plot and some interesting theories to boggle the mind. I loved every minute and recommend it highly.
