Surprising moments of insight and clarity adorn the pages of this dynamic follow-up novel.
Wasting Time… Book 2 picks up with a conspiracy laden plot-gone-wrong at a top-secret facility researching time travel. Money hungry investors become frustrated when the time traveling veterans begin to give voice to their objections to the mission. A partially foiled plan leaves one time traveler dead and the others frustrated and angry. Facing intense scrutiny and waning interest, the project is drastically scaled back, leaving tough and aloof Marta to oversee the chaos. Stressed about the loss of a friend, Marta struggles to deal with her growing feelings for fellow traveler, Marshall. From complicated cover-ups and murder plots to greedy manipulation and brute force, Marta is in a race against the flowing sands of time to protect a man she may love and a friend that may be lost in in another universe.
“So much of life is spent waiting for the mundane moments to creep past while anticipating some instant perceived to have greater value than the others… As if life is a highlight reel instead of the methodical gift of savoring each moment.” Surprising moments of insight and clarity adorn the pages of this dynamic follow-up novel where parallel-universes are differentiated by TV show soundtracks and people can be manipulated from the inside out. Complete with dastardly government agencies influenced by greedy corporate hustlers and even a comically obnoxious artificial intelligence with an attitude, Mike Murphey’s newest story checks all the boxes! Irreverent and intelligent, sexy and silly, the Physics, Lust and Greed Series is a subtly exaggerated look into innovation gone too far. Michael Crichton meets Steve Martin in Wasting Time Book 2, a worthwhile investment of time.
