Another New Book Takes Flight!

My novel The Dispossession of Dylan Knox is now available, tackling questions about love, trust, duty, and even our responsibility to the future of humanity. Especially the universal question: “Who do we really fall in love with? The person we see, or who they are inside?” Do we fall in love with someone because we like their looks? Or does real love require something deeper: a connection to the inner personality? Can our attraction to that ‘inner self’ be strong enough that outward appearance doesn’t even matter?

When Brooke Chappelle, an assistant to the secretary general of the United Nations, encounters her old high school flame Dylan Knox, Dylan doesn’t remember her. His personality has changed—in fact, over the course of several days he acts like three very different people. Brooke fears he could be an impostor intending to harm the secretary general or sabotage a sensitive space energy project where Dylan works. Or he may suffer from a serious mental disorder. Either way, he could be a threat to national security.

Dylan’s own explanation is too bizarre to believe, especially when he claims that Brooke’s own actions will shape the future. She realizes she’s going to have to choose whether to trust her former lover or to betray him.

Falling in love is the last thing she needs.

Mind you, the novel covers a lot of other ground, too, like the nature of time, and the relationship between consciousness and the physical body. It is science fiction, after all, and to me that means important themes and cool concepts!

I invite you to read a sample opening chapter of The Dispossession of Dylan Knox, and you can use this universal book link to find it at your favourite online retailer.

I also hope you can join me this Friday February 2, 2022 at 7:00 pm Eastern time for the Virtual Book Launch live-streaming on Facebook or YouTube including a reading from the book and a conversation with my friend and fellow author Mark Leslie. You could buy the ebook at a great discount, or even win an autographed print copy.

Oh yeah, and this novel also features a much stronger romance plot than I’ve ever done before—a great fit for Valentine’s Day. Just sayin’.
