Publisher's summary

Florida Book Festival Honorable Mention - Best General Fiction

A national security decision made decades ago ensnares Jonathan Hart, orphaned at birth, introverted, friendless, but whose life is starting to turn the corner. He has a great job and a fiancé who loves him. Suddenly, his life begins to skip backward and replay like an LP bumped on a turntable. Decisions made at the highest governmental levels more than 20 years ago begin to disrupt time and destroy his future. Finally, he is charged with a crime so awful that he contemplates suicide. What he does not know is that dying is not an option he controls.

The ending is incredible!

It hooks you right from the prologue with a setup of international reach. Then you meet Jonathan, a character not without his flaws, but likable all the same. The author has done well to capture the thoughts of a 20-something-year-old caught in a legal battle for his life. Throughout the story, you meet interesting character after interesting character. From the down and out attorney and his Latin associate to the Irish priest, who is wonderfully voiced by Vincent Caruso. I learned a lot about how the court system works and how a few unscrupulous folks can inflect damage. And the ending! It’s as creative as any ending I’ve experienced. I don’t want to give anything away, but you’ll never guess how the stories intertwine and oh is it worth the wait!

Had me hooked!

What a fantastic story written by FT Pandora! I was hooked within 17 Seconds. Because of his unique style of writing and his experience with the law and the medical world, this was an excellently written novel and I look forward to many more stories from this author!

Vincent Caruso did a great job reading the book. I was fully engaged because of his delivery, as well as the content he was reading from. This is a great pairing!
