Live and Impersonated

Science Fiction Novel

Tom Han is trying to spice up life inside Dome 3 in North America, in the year 2844, by bringing back hip-hop and other live entertainment. Then humanity finds itself scrambling, yet again, to save itself from extinction. White Horse, a hypervelocity star, is on course to obliterate the Sun in three years. Mysterious beings who brought that news also give them the gift of time travel.

The United Nations Labor Union learns of a threat from within that seeks to end humanity from the past. UNLU asks Tom to travel back to 1972 with close protection officer Regina Amato. Their mission is to survive in the twentieth century without disturbing the timeline, protect Elvis Presley, and eliminate the rogue agents determined to trigger a spacetime explosion that could destroy humanity's past before UNLU can prevent annihilation in the future.
