This is not your typical suspense / thriller novel. Because Thomas Locke is not your typical
novelist. You may find yourself (as I
did) putting the book down and walking away from it for a few days. But rest assured – you’ll be back.
You
may find yourself (as I did) starting the book over. That’s ok, too. Quite frankly, there really is a major “learning
curve” involved, if you are not quite up to speed with the space – time continuum,
particle physics and / or quantum computing.
Which
merely serves to demonstrate how truly diverse Thomas Locke (you may know him
as Davis Bunn) really is.
There
is a line from THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN
by Michael Crichton, describing one of the characters: “He knows everything, and is fascinated by
the rest.” When I think of Thomas Locke,
that’s the statement that comes to mind.
Perhaps
you can recall the “space race” of the late 1950’s, when everyone with the
necessary money and technology competed to “win” the edge, gain the advantage,
and reap the rewards that went along with it.
In
TRIAL RUN, the race
continues. Only this time, it’s all in
your mind.
Or
is it?
Dr.
Gabriella Speciale has assembled a team of elite scientists with one goal in
mind – to create, and control, out-of-body experiences that transcend the limits
of time and space.
Reese
Clawson is looking to take the same science and harness it for military
use.
Trent
Major is a gifted grad student whose unsettling dreams have placed him right in
the middle.
In
the end, one warning remains clear: what you
don’t know CAN kill you!
With
the two considerations firmly in mind, one should be prepared for the ride of
the century in Thomas Locke’s TRIAL
RUN!
