In Space, Medicine Can Be MURDER

When Dr. Grace Lord, combat surgeon, lands her dream job aboard the Conglomerate’s Premier Medical Space Station – the Nelson Mandela – she can scarcely believe her good fortune. Little does she know that from her first step onto the station, her life would be in danger. Attacked by marines who look like animals, stalked by androids who look like humans, and harangued by a mentor with Megalomaniac Hyperactivity Disorder, Grace suspects her dream job may actually be a nightmare. When a mysterious ship docks at the station containing only oily puddles and no crew, the lives of everyone on board the Nelson Mandela are suddenly at risk. A race begins to find a cure for the most deadly organism humanity has ever encountered before it is too late.

According to the front-page photo in the (New York) Daily News, my father was “Murdered Gangland Style.” I was three years old.
Based on those events, I’ve written a time-travel novel, “A Tale of Two Times,” about how a middle-aged son, Billy Volante, battles to save his younger parents’ previously doomed lives.
Billy and his loquacious girlfriend travel back in time to save Billy’s father from being murdered by the mob. They arrive in a sleepy, Florida coastal town where Billy’s parents took winter vacations. The goal is to warn Billy’s father and safely return to 2017. But things change when Billy meets his father’s killer and dire consequences loom.
