Future Tense: A Time Travel Thriller Romance

Playing with genetics can go horribly wrong. Can Mercy save the future of humanity? Mercy craves adventure, but she never expected it to come looking for her. Returning home from a miserable day at work, she finds a pair of eyes haunting her every move. Is she mad, or is time itself the delusion? Tancred Nine is from an apocalyptic future where genetic warfare is a reality, he knows he must risk everything to save himself and those he cares for. But he needs Mercy's help, if he can't make her believe him, he may cease to exist at all. Will Mercy abandon the life she knows and take the risk for the love of a time traveller? What readers are saying: "It's about courage and hope in the face of impossible odds. It is, in a sense, a study of the human condition, both the good and the bad. While it is complicated (time travel always is, especially when the two characters do not always meet in sequence), it is far from boring. I was completely unable to put the book down once I reached the halfway point and actually ended up finishing it around 2:30 in the morning." "This deftly avoided the cliché trap and nimbly danced around the future and the past, including some wonderfully descriptive visits to the Cretaceous, which had Palaeontologist, and dinosaur fossil hunter, Titus dancing on air" "This was very well written, from the beginning I was pulled in by the "mysterious eyes", and I was excited to read this book." "This isn't a fast-moving book, especially in the beginning, but it's not meant to be. It's meant to be read slowly and savoured, like a multi-course meal."

About the Author :
Having grown up in London Ms Gaskell Denvil fell in love with the history which oozed through the old stones. For many years, she walked the cobbled lanes and researched the 15th century from the original sources and worked for some time at the British Museum in the Department of Ancient Documents. Barbara Gaskell Denvil's father was an artist and playwright, her mother a retired teacher and her sister a published author at sixteen. Ms. Gaskell Denvil therefore had no other passion but the arts and books. She started writing articles and short stories for magazines and newspapers. She was also a tutor for scriptwriting, and a reviewer for Books and Bookmen. Since her children had grown and her partner had died, she started writing full length fiction again, and in all her favourite genres. Her work was accepted by Simon & Shuster, and two of her historical mysteries were published in the traditional manner. However, although successful, she found herself disliking the control system with covers she hated. Ms. Gaskell Denvil now self-publishes her work and enjoys every minute. Living in Australia, she adores experiencing a placid life during the day and a wonderfully exciting one in her dreams at night. She has written fantasy and historical fiction. Very different genres, but most are crime mysteries in one way or another. She has also now finished the six books in her children's series (Bannister's Muster), no crime, but a vibrant mixture of history and fantasy. Adding to her catalogue, she now includes a series of modern crime mysteries, with more fantasy to come. Writing is and always has been her passion.
