FLASH POINT

By Thomas Locke

“Flash Point” is a psychological/science-fiction/murder mystery that ensures you will stay awake reading into the wee hours of the night because you simply will not be able to put it down.

The major question right off the bat is one that, if you’re anything like me, should make your skin grow cold. Would you go into the future if it meant that you could make positive changes in your present life? If you said yes to this, just think about what the future could mean.

Junior financial analyst, Lena Fennan, is acting on orders given by herself in the future. This all begins with a simple dare, yet corporate intrigue, fear, danger and even romance all come from taking that simple ‘step’ into the unknown.

Dr. Brett Riffkind and Roger and Marjorie Foretrain are characters working to prevent neurobiology skills from coming to pass; information that was stolen by an obscure organization that Reese Clawson, the bad guy from “Trial Run” (the previous book in this author’s Fault Lines series), is now working for.

The action is never-ending. A powerful narrative that grips you from page one, it’s almost impossible not to imagine what your life would be like if you took a dare like this; yet instead of changing things for the positive added major negatives that you might not be able to survive. Many storylines go on at the same time in this one, but readers will be so engrossed and the author does such a wonderful job with the flow and progression of the tale, that it’s easy to hang on to every detail.
