Screenwriting
Grandad is in hospital and is being visited by his
son-in-law, Andrew, who has just purchased a copy of a Renoir picture "The Two
Sisters on the Terrace". Andrew brought the painting to the hospital to cheer up
Grandad and to show it off to his Brother-in-Law George.
Grandad gets confused, thinking that his daughter Renee had actually painted it
that evening at her art class... Nothing is going to convince him otherwise...
At the same time, across the Atlantic, the owner of the
company that sold the painting, returns from vacation and finds that one of the
paintings from his 'Special Stock' has been sold...
Here are the first twenty pages.
The Third Eye.
Kearn Coullin and his wife, Mary, appear to be just your average family. Mary
works as a researcher in the Houses of Parliament. Kearn is a moderately
successful novelist who has an annoying habit of informing Mary if somebody is
lying or not when somebody is being interviewed on the television or radio.
Four- year-old
twins are kidnapped from a playground and the parents are interviewed, Kearn
states they are lying. Mary suddenly realises, that every time Kearn stated if
someone was lying or not, he was correct in his assertion.
She tells him he should go to the Police but he refuses, stating that they will
think he’s a lunatic, and have him committed. Through Mary’s contacts in the
Houses of Parliament, Mary arranges an appointment for him to be tested at a
psychic laboratory. The results are startling and although she was told that the
testing was strictly confidential, it wasn’t, and suddenly a top-secret
government agency becomes interested in Kearn Coullin!
This series
follows the emergence of Kearn Coullin’s latent psychic abilities, forged as
circumstances are forced on him.
As the story moves
on, there have been four written thus far, Kearn exhibits awesome powers; far
greater than any Psychic in history. At the present point in time, it is
beginning to dawn on the Government Agency that he could be a very dangerous man
indeed…
