Beyond the Book: Time Lost

Blurb:

n a serene night in 1953, Sally Mason, a dedicated wife and mother of two, drives a twisting road on her way home from night school. Suddenly, a mysterious bluish-white light descends over the road.

Terrified, Sally slams on the brakes. After a flash of bright light nearly blinds her, she passes out, awakening to the persistent knock of a police officer on her car window. When she sees the officer and remembers her frightening experience, she screams and faints, and is rushed to the hospital.

What Sally does not know, and what the police eventually and reluctantly conclude, is that Sally and her car have been hurled ahead in time from 1953 to 2023.

Driven by the urgency to reunite with her children, Sally is forced to confront the reason for her time leap journey, and to grapple with a life-and-death decision.

My Review

I like time travel stories.So does our resident hound. In fact he wrote several time travel novels. I haven’t written any time travel, but I sure do like them. In many time travel stories the hero or the heroine wants to go home, They figure out a way, and nine times out of ten the two lovers met again to spend their life together. This book is a little different because the minute she gets there she works on getting home where she has two children and a husband. 

Have you ever thought what you’d really do if you were hurled to the future or past? Who can help you? What would you think if after a little time you do go home? What do you do when you go back and find your husband married and your children are grown up? There would be even more questions. I don’t think anything would make things easier.

As it happens our heroine is a strong character. It’s a talent. I enjoyed Sally and the future she made for herself. 

What about you? Do you like time travel stories? If so, who is your favorite author?
