Epilogue

  Joseph Grady bolted upright in bed and took in his unfamiliar surroundings. He was waking from the deepest sleep he had ever experienced in his young life. I was drowning, he thought. And then, am I dead? But as he looked around the mostly-dark room, with morning's breaking sunlight peeking in, his mind reeled with an overwhelming sense of deja vu.

  Acknowledgements

  As an avid reader, I am always impressed with a well-researched book, accurate in technical details as well as cultural and other factors. To that end, many people helped me to ensure Hindsight is credible and accurate to the extent a science-fiction work can be. In addition to plain old-fashioned research, I relied on a few experts with life experience who chipped in: my wife Shileen regarding kidnapping investigations, Kristian Alveo about Puerto Rico, Todd Wright about forex and arbitrage, and Shawn Bouldin about the U.S. Coast Guard. Thanks guys.

  I would also like to thank my family and friends. You have all helped me just by encouragement and your support. In particular, thanks to my wife Shileen, I really couldn't do this without you.

  Most importantly, thanks belong to God, who inspires me to do all good things. It's my hope that this book is one of those good things.

  Synopsis

  James Grady just wanted to bring his family back together, years after he made a mistake that sent them into a slow drift. When he takes his troubled family on vacation in the Puerto Rican Caribbean, they see their problems escalate from the routine family drama to something much worse as they cross paths with scientists working on a secret time warping experiment on a nearby island. Tension and excitement build as the family's desperate plight leads them into a world where the scientists are deeply involved in solving a mystery of their own.
