Veil — George C. Chesbro

When Veil Kendry was born, a brain infection almost ended his life. That illness has left him with a supernatural power that is both a blessing and a curse. Veil dreams with a clarity unknown to nature; his dreams bring him to the edges of time and infinity - and to the minds of other men.

Veil left his CIA career to become an artist, a painter whose landscapes are of strange, unknown worlds. He volunteered to undergo tests at the Institute for Human Studies, and now someone there is trying to kill him.
