EXCERPT:
I could hear footsteps come down the staircase.
“Mr. Blue!” Kelly said, immediately recognizing me.
“Jeff,” I insisted.
“Jeff, how have you been? What brings you here?”
“Jeff just recently came out of a coma,” J0
interjected.
“Oh, my!”
“He thinks that, by seeing our house, it could help
him,” Mr. Kaminski added.
“Of course,” she said. She looked at J0 and
extended a hand. “I’m Kelly Kaminski.”
“Julie. Julie Blue,” J0 replied and shook Kelly’s
hand.
“This must be so hard on you.”
“Yes, it has been. We’re getting through it,
together, one day at a time.”
“Jeff is lucky to have you.”
It felt so natural to have J0 introduce herself as
Julie like that. Surprisingly, it wasn’t disturbing in the slightest.
“Believe me now,” Mr. Kaminski said, “we’ve been
very happy here.”
“I’m delighted to hear that,” I said.
“What can we do to help?” Kelly asked.
“I’m not really sure what I came here to find. I
guess I was just hoping that being back here would spark some memory.”
“Has it?”
“Not yet, but—”
“We aren’t willing to give up,” J0 finished. “We’re
trying new things every day.”
“Do you want to try going upstairs?” Mr. Kaminski
suggested.
Their guests were restless on the verge of
annoyance. Mr. Kaminski also seemed to notice. In his attempt to move us along,
it appeared he was trying not to be overtly rude or inconsiderate.
“I think it might be helpful,” I said.
BLURB:
Jeff Blue - the victim of a time-travel conspiracy - wakes up trapped in
the year 2095. The only familiar face is J0, a robotic copy of the wife he left
behind in 1981. But can she be trusted? J0 could be the only key to unlock
Jeff's journey home, but it will require her to do something against her
programming , something human.
During
Jeff's perilous journey through the future, he will have to discover the truth
about J0's origins, and solve the mystery behind how he wound up in 2095, in
order to uncover the reality of his own destiny.
Armed
with a one-way ticket to the moon, Jeff must race against the clock to seize
what might be his last chance to return home to his time. A time without hover
cars, Justice Computers, or TeleSkins - a time over 100 years ago.
