Three universes, Atlantis, time travel, an alternate future or two and a gung-ho gynoid all pull together to give Tom Two-Dan $mith (sic) his next challenge. Being dead doesn't help. He wakes after an accident in an independent Scotland to find he has mislaid a load of years, his body and a whole universe. He gets trapped in London, devastated by another war. The Mob are in charge, controlling the population, and people are disappearing off the streets.
His investigation goes badly, resulting in him being confined to a stud farm for people, until he escapes and finds out what became of Atlantis. A liberation force from the US, spoiling to try out some new kit, joins the fray, and very nearly causes another Armageddon. All this with a headache which may spell the end of him. One of the problems with hopping between universes is that there is a slim chance you can meet yourself.
That cannot happen of course, and so it does, exactly at the point where the whole fabric of space and time collapses.

Biographie de Robert Wingfield

Robert Wingfield used to sleep in the technology department of a large organisation between 9 and 5 each day, (except on Fridays when they woke him at 4 and sent him home early), but he finally got tired with this taxing routine and left his job for good. A prolific writer, to date he has over twenty works, electronically and in paperback, available through various outlets-all can be tracked through www.robertwingfieldauthor.co.uk.
His work covers several genres:Satirical sci-fi novels, 'The Dan Provocations', hopefully having you laughing out loud (or cringing, when you realize how closely satire matches reality). Gothic chillers in the form of the 'Ankerita' series (The Seventh House) featuring a Tudor anchoress reborn in modern times. Travelogues in the 'One Man in a Bus' series, currently cover Sicily, North Cyprus and Syros in the Cyclades.
Other short stories with a supernatural flavor ('The Black Dog of Peel' is free for you on this site). For the younger reader, 'The Mystery of the Lake' and 'the Mystery of the Midnight Sun' have a Swallows and Amazons feel, and are suitable for even your grey-haired old great-aunt.'The Adventures of Stefan' kick off with 'Stefan and the Sand Witch', a modern day fairy-tale, and 'Stefan and the Spirit of the Woods', an eco-fairytale.
For those who have elderly relatives telling them about embarrassing ailments, you need 'Everyone's Guide to not being an Old Person', a gentle satire on what people do when they get old, and how to avoid it. For those struggling authors, he runs The Inca Project, a set of free resources to help you get your works into print. He also provides formatting and editing services through the project, to ensure you get the best result from your masterpiece.
See www.incaproject.co.ukHe has written many reviews on management books and was a member of the Chartered Management Institute and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers when he was working and could afford the subscriptions. His other interests include digital forensics, nature and building conservation, photography, and resisting emotional blackmail from his Labrador. Favorite quotes:Don't give up your day job...
whoops too late.(Robert Wingfield)
