GRiP is a novel about a man struggling with the familiar. Newly married, he and his wife plan for the future: settle into a career, buy a house, have a baby, and live happily ever after. Except Sebastian is both aided and tormented by a voice in his head that may stem from a psychological disorder, or may truly be a result of glimpses that Seb has of parallel universes but has trouble remembering fully. The voice, which Seb calls his “thought familiar”, helped him cheat on exams, mocks his personal habits, and knows how to hide the bodies of those Seb has accidentally enjoyed killing.
As Seb’s life unravels, he becomes convinced that he will not be able to avoid the compulsion to kill his wife, whom he loves dearly but is unable to show her. In an effort to save his relationship and the lives of those around him, Seb seeks help to recover and thwart once and for all the familiar within.
