The two protagonists start falling in love whilst attempting to prevent a terrible crime from taking place - a crime that plunged both their worlds into nightmare and occurred over a hundred years before. To have a future, they will have to find their way back to 1902.
Here’s my 4 Star review of TIMELAPSE on Amazon.co.uk
and Goodreads:
'An
ingenious plot fuels a gripping tale
Alex is a young college professor in Washington DC,
who has closed himself off from the world after a personal tragedy. Suddenly he
finds himself transported to an alternative 2010, where the U.S.A. has become a
repressive dictatorship policed by brutal storm troopers. Alex rescues a young
woman rebel – Jessie – from their clutches. He discovers a reason to live
again, through his growing attraction to Jessie. But then he finds a cause
worth dying for. It seems an assassin’s bullet in 1902 set America on the path
to oppression. Can Alex leap backwards through time – as he leaped sideways –
and prevent the assassination ever happening, change history and save his
country? He decides to risk it, and then Jessie decides to come along…
Lorrie Farrelly creates vulnerable and damaged but
still likable characters you can care about, and plunges them into one perilous
adventure after another. An ingenious plot fuels a gripping, fast-paced tale,
dystopian sci-fi that also manages to reflect our own troubled times.'
but also of 2 TV gems from the 60s: STAR TREK’S ‘The City on the edge of Forever’
TIMELAPSE is a winning medallist in the 2014 READERS' FAVOURITE BOOK AWARDS.
