Time and Time Again

When an atomic blast throws Allan Hartley out of his life, he wakes in the bedroom of his thirteen-year-old self with the mind, memories, and hard-earned experience of a forty-three-year-old man. It is August 5, 1945, and Allan knows exactly what the coming days will bring: Hiroshima, the end of World War II, and a future shadowed by even greater catastrophe. But first he must survive his own childhood without exposing the impossible truth. As Allan cautiously navigates his old home, he hides his adult intelligence from his skeptical father, Blake, while testing the limits of his new reality. A chance encounter with Frank Gutchall turns deadly in Allan's eyes, and his quick thinking—disabling a pistol and alerting the police—saves a woman's life and forces Blake to confront the evidence. What follows is a tense, searching conversation about time travel, precognition, consciousness, and whether the self can exist apart from the body. Together, father and son begin to shape a daring plan: use knowledge from the future to alter history, build power, and try to prevent the wars still to come.
