Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist for FictionSome situations just call for a few psychopaths. They have limited emotional responses, no empathy, and they thrive on danger. When the situation calls for a fearless action hero, look no further. But what do you do in the 28th century when you desperately need psychopaths, but you've long since eradicated the condition? Fortunately, you have time travel. When you need some real live movie action heroes but there are no psychopaths available, you go back in time to medically "e;manufacture"e; them, so to speak, so they'll be grown, trained and ready to report to work today as "e;Rambo."e; In this satire of twenty-first century America, our lives are being covertly observed by people from the year AD 2754, just as we have been observed since the beginning of time. The world's population now lives in oceans across the globe and the time continuum, where they have no hunger, or countries, or religion. They even, finally, designed a new world order to promote lasting peace. There are no more history books. Instead, Historians travel back in time to attend historically significant events, and report on things as they actually happened, not has traditional history has always told us they happened. Then they upload these reports to the Educator Database, which 28th century history teachers use to create their course curriculum. One Historian unthinkingly and illegally says two words to two AD 2021 "e;locals"e; in a misstep that could potentially trigger a disastrous alternate history. To repair this "e;Anomaly"e; and return the time continuum and recorded history to its original state, 28th century world leaders gather an emergency team, which includes one regular Historian, a local psychologist, and four psychopathic Historians, called "e;Heroes,"e; whom they dispatch to do the dirtiest jobs. It will take more than four action heroes to put the time continuum back into place. Historian Avid must learn, and then teach, 28th century psychotherapy techniques to psychologist Helen. They all hope that she can then dissuade her disturbed client from murdering an adolescent who is supposed to grow up to be a highly consequential historical figure. Those two careless words spoken by that other time traveler have now put the boy's life at risk and threaten to change the future of the world.
