Synopsis

Tradecraft: Book Two of the Back to Normal Series. The thrilling time travel saga that began with Paradigm Rift now continues. Just as Area 51 scientists make a remarkable discovery concerning Denver Collins' wallet, explosive evidence mounts that a murderous saboteur lurks within the upper echelons of CIA Project SATURN. With a persistent newspaper editor attempting to connect all the dots, even a revolutionary time travel breakthrough by the researchers in The Basement might be tragically too late. Denver Wayne Collins remains unconscious behind bars, an FBI dragnet is sweeping the Midwest, and a relentless Russian assassin tracks down their hidden location. Normal's Jumpers are running out of time. The Back to Normal Series is a thrilling mix of history, mystery, and conspiracy. From Area 51 to Roswell, from present day to the beginnings of the Cold War, follow the gripping account of a desperate group of time jumpers hunted by the CIA /KGB and hounded by their own pasts. This four-book saga will challenge the way you understand contemporary world history...and even time itself. TRADECRAFT is the sequel to PARADIGM RIFT, Book One of the Back to Normal series.

About this title

About the Author

I am a science fiction fan and writer from the very heart of the Heartland of America. I grew up in California, and transplanted to the Midwest in 1980. I am a graduate of Southeast Missouri State University, receiving my B.A. Degree in Media in 1991. Over the last decade, I have written across a variety of genres, including feature-length screenplays for a Romantic Comedy, Police Thriller, and Action Thriller, and even a Drama-Thriller Television series. 

My latest offering is the Back to Normal quadrilogy. These titles are Volume I: Paradigm Rift, Volume II: Tradecraft, Volume III: Proximity, and Volume IV: Crossover. This series revolves around a motley crew of involuntary time-jumpers that find themselves mysteriously transported back to post-World War II America, and follows their desperate struggle to find a way back home before the CIA and a KGB assassin can find them. 

I live in Jackson, Missouri with my wife, Amanda, 3 children, 2 cats, and a lovable puppy who weighs in just shy of 115 pounds.

Review

READER REVIEWS:

"★★★★★ ...with the rich storyline, the detailed history, the strong character development, and the amazing plot that will keep you guessing and on the edge of your seat ..... this book has me hooked...I can't wait for book 3!"

"★★★★★ Mr. McWilson has such a rich imagination, the storyline and characters are so interesting it was hard to put this book down. I loved reading this and couldn't wait to purchase the 3rd book the minute I finished this one."

"★★★★★ Great books are measured by the sum of times the reader finds themselves having to remember it's just a book. I found myself so in tune with McWilson's story, setting, and characters that I had to snap back to reality several times."
"★★★★★ Just got this book yesterday and I can not put it down! It has been several months since I read book 1 but I have been instantly sucked back into the time travel phenomenon of Normal, IL."

"★★★★★ As I had eagerly awaited TRADECRAFT, I wondered if this new book could hold the same level of my attention as the first in this series. I was pleasantly blown away. Never before have I followed a book series where the sequel was this much better than the original."

"★★★★★ This is a compelling sequel to Paradigm Rift. It not only answers the questions left at the end of Book 1 but quickly twists into a complex plot only a master writer could envision. Well done, Sir!"
