The Particle Paradox. A time-travel techno-thriller - Chris Sanders

Imagine having the capability to build a ship that could approach the speed of light.

Imagine taking that ship on a three-month journey into space - only to return and find Earth, and everyone you know, fifty years older.

Time Dilation

A ship like that is still science fiction.

But there is something that can approach the speed of light: Particles.

At CERN, an accidental breach in the 17-mile tunnel triggers the discovery of strange, unclassified anomalies. Particles which are not yet classified nor recognizable. The question is not where they are from, it is when they are from.

Before the truth can be understood, the data and someone who understands it, disappear. The very building blocks of new technologies and new materials are revealed. But who will possess them and what will they do with them. No one anticipates what comes next.

Author's Note:

Hello, I hope you enjoy this book. I came up with this idea over a decade ago, but work, family and fun called! Now that I'm retired, I decided to dust it off and finish it. The idea occurred to me when I read the Twin's Paradox. It struck me that that scenario is basically time traveling. But we can't build near-speed of light ships, and there are already many time-travel stories along these lines. But particles travel that fast all the time; especially in collider tubes. What if they were involved in time travel. What doors would it open and what would we do with it? I am a retired from medical R&D, and am enjoying the PNW with family and friends. I appreciate any feed-back at chris.sanders.1234@gmail.com.
