An experiment in particle physics goes awry and shifts humanity's awareness two decades into the future for two minutes. During that brief glimpse ahead in time, Dr. Theo Procopides discovers that he will be murdered and realizes that he has 20 years to find and stop his killer. Sawyer (Factoring Humanity, LJ 6/15/98) brings a fresh and startling approach to the familiar theme of time travel in a tale that explores the repercussions of knowing the future. A solid choice for most sf collections. Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
