Noon Blue Apples is a mind-bending psychological thriller that dives headlong into the paranoid convolutions of a conspiracy theorist’s worst nightmare.


Eris, an intense University student, is researching her paper on social phobias. Following a lead, she stumbles upon the diaries of an obscure early 20th Century horror novelist and poet. The strange term “Noon Blue Apples” appears. Once. Twice. Three times. Subversive and discomforting pirate radio transmissions bleed into her stereo headphones as she jogs. The research leads Eris to 23rd Street, and down a flight of stairs to the (literally underground) Chapel Perilous bookstore. While browsing the dusty shelves, she encounters an eccentric trio who run the store, and who eventually agree to unveil the secrets of their hidden world.


Soon people seem to be watching her. Her path leads to alien invasions, the Bavarian Illuminati, the Dogon tribe and the Sirius star system, the Freemasons and the Priory of Sion, and solid evidence that Scott Baio is the Anti-Christ. Synchronicity begins to rip holes in her beliefs, and her vision of reality starts to crumble.


Are her experiences merely a series of bizarre coincidences, or evidence of the conspiracies of an ancient secret society? Her skepticism is tested as the most enigmatic and dangerous theories start to make sense. She starts to slip into a dangerous parallel world of metaphor, chaos and the struggle to control the world.
