Syncing Forward

by W. Lawrence

Overview

Attacked and injected with a drug which slows his metabolism to a fraction of normal, Martin James becomes an unwilling time traveler who hurtles through the years. His children grow up, his wife grows older, and his only hope is finding the people who injected him in the first place - not an easy task when one day for Martin lasts four years. And while Martin James strives to find a cure before everyone he loves is gone, others are uncertain if his journey can be stopped at all. W. Lawrence weaves a dystopian future filled with the best and worst of humanity, highlights the blessings and curses of technology, and pushes the limits of faith and hopelessness. Above all, Syncing Forward is a tale of one man's love for his family, and their devotion to saving him from being lost forever.

Syncing Forward and Syncing Back are diptychs, to be read alone or together in any order. One is somber and reflective, one is action packed and tempestuous. Both tell a tale of dedication and love, and what we give up for the ones closest to us.

About the Author

W Lawrence was born in San Francisco, California, and moved two dozen times before settling in Pennsylvania with his extraordinarily patient wife, two precocious daughters, and two maniac dogs. He worked for nearly twenty years as a professional interrogator in both the U.S. military and the world of corporate security before hanging up his hat.

In 2014, his debut novel Syncing Forward became a time-traveling best seller and -with a second novel on the way- everything appeared to be heading to the top. Tragedy struck in 2017, plunging Lawrence and his family into a drama that is fit for the pages (and soon will be). Ten years later, he's taken to the keyboard again, with multiple novels completed and on the way.

Editorial Reviews

...A thoroughly original premise, and a story which can easily translate to film or TV due to a storyline that takes us in so many directions, even beyond what we have here in the book. A blueprint for a new breed of time travel tales, and an extraordinary example as any of how to take a well-worn concept and present something unexpected.
