Synopsis
Until now, Ben Ward's greatest achievement to date has been passing the 'Bar Exam' to become a lawyer. And until now, his worst living nightmare has been the brutal murder of his beautiful wife, Jane, at the hands of a crazed killer, three years earlier. But when he buys an odd, one-of-a-kind Sat Nav, made of brass, nickel and ivory, supplied to him by a mysterious online company called TimeLine, something very strange happens. The bizarre object talks to him, announcing that it's a Time Machine. Ben quickly learns how to manipulate the Time Machine and Time in the past, present and future, but also realizes that he is not the only Time Traveller. And against all odds, he dares to try and stop his wife's murder from happening.
About the Author
Michael Siddall was born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, and his aspirations to become a novelist began after devising the board game: 'Challenge of the Gods'. Educated at Newfield School in Sheffield, he left with exemplary grades in his final exams and went on to Granville College where he studied Art and Design, Literature and History. Times were hard and he left to become a carpet fitter. As a child of nine Michael contracted Rheumatic Fever, spending a whole year in the Northern General Hospital laid flat on his back for the first six months and in a wheelchair for the following six. To occupy himself he wrote his first short stories and poems and has continued to write every day of his life since. He was told that as a consequence of his illness he would have a weak heart and spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. Michael proved the specialists wrong. Not only did he walk again; he joined the army and became a P. T. I. in the R.E.M.E., stationed at Borden in Hampshire with a heart as strong as a lion. He also holds the rank of 5th Dan Black Belt with instructor status in three different styles of martial arts - Shotokan Karate, Aikido and Korean Kempo. A writer since school, he has written several novels of varying length, 'Challenge of the Gods' being his first serious attempt at fantasy novel writing after completing a creative writing course. He has also written the Time Travel novels 'All the Time in the World' and 'Time and Time Again', besides the trilogy 'A Violent Man', and a short novella entitled: 'The Book, the Wand, the Magic'. He still resides in Sheffield where he ice skates almost every day at Ice Sheffield and teaches his friends Kickboxing and Mixed Martial Arts. He dresses like a cowboy for Cosplay Conventions whenever he can.
