About This Book

A nervous groom planning to marry experiences a series of comic, inexplicable disruptions—scissors that march and cut his socks, phantom voices, sudden obstacles, and abrupt weather changes—that derail the ceremony and make him question his sanity. Friends and family interpret his reactions as pre-wedding nerves while he searches for proof and for an unseen agent that seems determined to stop the marriage. The story mixes slapstick incidents and psychological unease to explore doubts about commitment and the unsettling effects of an invisible, time-bending interference on ordinary domestic plans.
