The year is 1984. Things are looking up for 30 year old David Boyer, an aspiring world class athlete. He is on the cusp of achieving his lifelong dream of becoming one of the best tennis players in the world, when his life is turned upside down by a serious accident. With his body damaged and his spirit crushed, he is forced to accept menial work with a large energy corporation where his father already works. Bucky Boyer is a brilliant scientist who has invented a revolutionary electrical device, years ahead of its time, that threatens to bankrupt the very company that now employs them. Meanwhile, dozens of retired employees have been dying in tragic accidents. Joe Miller, David's friend, coworker, and frustrated amateur detective, senses the suspicious nature of it all. David is reluctantly dragged into the conspiracy. With the help of another old friend from childhood and his amazing pet, the mystery is finally unraveled. David confronts his ultimate fear and, in so doing, gains a powerful life lesson and a deeper appreciation for this new life that has replaced the one he lost. This novel has everything: danger, suspense, tragedy, fishing, intrigue, funny stories, sad stories, science, complicated characters, romance, courageous animals, timeless words of wisdom, and humor. Two thumbs up(the author's).
