It was our house nowI had the key in my pocket. I steered into the empty driveway for the first time; until this moment Donna and I had been visitors, and we felt as welcome as a threat.

Time and time again

0.0 (0)

In Michael Casher’s second novel, Time and Time Again, The Evermore Trilogy adventure continues. Jack's back for more misadventures with Unim, the biped plant from Zeta6. It’s seven years later and Unim suddenly appears on Earth, snatched from a wormhole during a routine cargo mission between Hool and Zaroz by an evil time travel project on Earth. When Jack agrees to help the Uli find his Hooligan friend, who is lost somewhere in time, he doesn’t know what he’s let himself in for. It’s Spy vs. Spy as things get so out of hand in Pennsylvania’s Allegheny Plateau that even the New York mob gets involved. The alterable future of planet Earth is now in the hands of Jack Rand, Unim and an Air Force Colonel from the past with special ties to an underground alien presence that has been tinkering with Earth’s population and its destiny since the days of Roswell. Time and Time Again is an eye-opening, mind-blowing excursion into the timeless mysteries of a boundless Universe where the future is up for grabs and the past never dies.

Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker―two of the most acclaimed writers of supernatural thrillers―have joined forces for the first time to craft a story unlike any you've ever read. Enter House―where you'll find yourself thrown into a killer's deadly game in which the only way to win is to lose . . . and the only way out is in.

The year is 2014 and Phoebe, a prostitute specialising as a dominatrix, is summoned to a sixth floor suite in a London Hotel by an infirm elderly businessman, Reece, who wants her to perform an unusual service. He wants her to witness a document detailing the murder of his two wives by his business associate Julian. When Julian walks in, Phoebe disappears through the nearest door and finds herself in an identical suite, but in the year 1994. Not surprisingly, the suite's occupant, Reece's second wife is sceptical about her explanation. When Phoeboe goes through another door, and finds herself in 1974 with Reece's first wife, she decides to rewrite the future. Alan Ayckbourn's 46th play, "Communicating Doors" premiered in Scarborough in 1994, and stared Julia McKenzie.
