Description:

An exciting near-future thriller set in a post-depression Europe where two young people must fight to save millions from destruction by a time-travelling terrorist who is the willing pawn of his criminal backers.

Two young people, Jay and Sandra, each traumatised in their different ways by their involvement in the youth cult of timesplashing, struggle to bring down Sniper, the glamorous cult-figure who turned a one-time extreme sport into a deadly weapon for sale to the highest bidder. From the Berlin of 2049 to Edwardian London, they track the man who destroyed and defined their lives. But Sniper has powerful backers and all the police and security forces of Europe can't stop him. In the end, Sandra and Jay are all that stand between Sniper and the achievement of his greatest and most devastating timesplash.

Praise:

“For me the acid test of any book is whether I seek to pick it up again once I put it down or do days pass and dust collects on the cover, before I thumb my way back in. TimeSplash is very much a book in the 'pick it up' category, one that fights being put down, mostly owing to Graham Storrs' deft building of believable characters and compelling story line.” A. Shackcloth, writer.

“I was lucky enough to read a draft of his novel, TimeSplash and I have to say he is one of those rare SF authors who can plot out a detailed storyline with depth and elegance ... he reminds me of Arthur C Clarke in his ability to make things real. Real people and real events.” T. Hornby, writer.

“A fantastic writer (his short stories are in the same area of my heart reserved for Ray Bradbury)” E. J. Newman, author.

About the author:

Graham Storrs is someone who thinks a lot about the future. It's a place we're all going, whether we like it or not, a place where we, our children and their children will have to deal with changes we can barely imagine. Some of us can't wait to get there, to see what it's like, and how we will cope. That's why Graham writes science fiction - he wants to know what happens next in this amazing story we're all living.

After a career in research and software design, Graham has turned his gaze firmly to the far horizons and now lives and writes on a remote mountain-top in rural Australia. Surrounded by gum forests and wild animals, he relies on his wife, Christine, and their Airedale terrier, Bertie, to keep him anchored in the present. TimeSplash is Graham's debut novel and is available here or from leading online bookstores.
