Tempus Fugit
by Frank Almond
Price: $7.50
ISBN: 0-917990-50-1
Trapped in a white Ford Cortina with Sir Julian Gaylord Duckworth aka the Duck. What cruel fate is this for Stephen Gilmore Sloane, who only wants to spend the day making up with his girlfriend Emma Gummer? Is the Duck Stephen's old college mate or, perish the thought, his father?
Stephen and the Duck squirm out of the clutches of the futuristic Sex Police as the mystery of Stephen's birth and the whereabouts of Emma Gummer unravel.
Tempus fugit in the past, present and future of this wild and wacky sci-fi novel.
The Duck's mania for Seventies sex and Pink Floyd has him and Stephen streaking in and out of the timeline vortex, risking erasure at every juncture.
BOSON BOOKS also offers the sequal, Future Tense.

About the Author
 Frank Almond was born in Cornwall, England, and still lives there with his wife and three children.
After an early career in magazine publishing and scriptwriting, Frank taught English in schools as well as to adults, before downsizing to find time for his own writing. He now does very little teaching and mostly works for examination boards as an examiner. He has done some ghost-writing for one of his former students, who won a Prince Charles Trust Award for raising barn owls for release into the wild. They wrote a book together ( OWL LIGHT, Kyle Cathie, 1994). He also has a collection of detective stories under contract to a London publisher, but they have not been issued yet.
