Stowaway

While Jack Burgess is writing a magazine story, an unknown force propels his consciousness eighty-four years into the future. There he finds himself an unwitting stowaway aboard a Mars-bound transport – trapped inside the mind of ship’s navigator Jorge Cedeño. Will Jack merely observe? Or will he somehow influence Jorge’s approach to a risky mission and, perhaps even more dangerous, Jorge’s ambiguous bond with ship’s captain, Kala Milloy? And if Jack should ever return to his own time and body, how will the experience impact his own bond with wife Jennifer? Within this impossible scenario, the author has created a character-driven story, as much about human relationships and human destiny as travel from mind to mind and through time and space.
