A dark, luminous journey into human connection and the unseen forces that shape our world
"As darkly glittering as a country night sky or the alleyway where puddles reflect a big city's highrises," writes Cassandra Lane in praise of The Invisible Hand [https://www.amazon.com/Invisible-Hand-Douglas-Cole-ebook/dp/B0F5WL31FH/ref], the latest novel from award-winning author and poet Douglas Cole.

In The Invisible Hand , readers meet Sara, whose testimony sends her father to prison before she sets off on a journey with a stranger who promises freedom, but delivers fractures instead. Across different times and landscapes, Gabriel and his family face a mysterious unraveling of their world, while Jones, a gifted manipulator of money, navigates a gothic city where inner turmoil mirrors outer chaos. As their paths converge, Cole invites readers to question what unseen power what "invisible hand" is working to bring them together, and whether it will save or destroy them.

Cole's novel moves beyond narrative into an exploration of collective consciousness. "We are in this together," he says. "Reality is what we imagine it is, but our collective dream seems to be slipping into a nightmare." Through layered storytelling and economic metaphors woven seamlessly into the prose, The Invisible Hand exposes the fragility of progress and asks: If the world keeps advancing, why does it often feel like we're falling apart?

At its core, the novel is both an artistic and philosophical inquiry into connection, consequence, and the unseen forces social, economic, and spiritual that bind humanity together.
