Synopsis

"This story is an exciting, fresh twist on the time travel genre." Remember the time, after a particular encounter, you said to yourself, "Well, that could have gone better." Or the moment you did something, or did nothing, that you instantly regretted. And in the back of your mind, you desperately wished you had a "do-over." In the novel, Do-Overs, Jake Patterson, a 72-year-old retiree, discovers that he can travel back through his own timeline and actually change those failed opportunities that he, like you, experienced in his life. And, while those second chances are not history-changing and don't alter any outcomes, Jake feels a little better about himself. They are exhilarating experiences, until he's pushed to uncover the answer to an awful question that's been haunting him for nearly 50 years. Finding that answer forces him to "do over" one hellish night as a soldier in the Central Highlands of Vietnam as a 23-year-old. When he makes a spur-of-the-moment decision that saves a friend, he begins to understand, to his horror, that when you mess with time for any reason-no matter how innocent or well-intended-sooner or later, she's going to seriously mess with you. "A stirring ride through a violent war experience that catapults the reader onto the floor of the real (and imagined) chaos that was the 1976 Republican Convention."
