Inspiration and synopses of the seires
While on vacation in Antigua in the mid ninties, Upnick met an Englishman named Sidney Dowse. Mr. Dowse was one of the men who escaped from Sagan,
the prison camp portrayed in the 1963 movie, The Great Escape. Mr. Dowse had information that was not in any history book. Dowse related events both
from his own recollections and also those he had been told by his superior, Stewart Menzies, the head of MI-6 during World War II.
Upnick made a promise to Sidney Dowse that he would not repeat anything he had revealed to him until after his death. Mr. Dowse died in 2008.
Mr. Dowse’s incredible recollections inspired the writing of Time Will Tell, Lonely Heroes,
Future Tense, 2052 and Full Circle.
Certain facts, unknown to history, are woven into these stories. Upnick reveals that Winston Churchill actually knew the date and time of the planned
attack on Pearl Harbor. What did he decide to tell Roosevelt? Menzies, who met daily with Winston Churchill, reported that unknown, advanced technology
used by men hoping to aid the British cause was crucial to the effort. Did time travelers help the Allies win the war? Menzies thought so.
Lonely Heroes and Future Tense, the sequels to Time Will Tell, takes place
years later, in the present day through the years 2022-2028. International chaos ensues after Putin’s death creates a power vacuum and Russia is ruled by
the Mob. Enormous deficits in the U.S. endanger the Union. External threats cause global havoc and do not bode well for our planet’s
future but supernaturally gifted children and friendly aliens come to the rescue.
2052 and Full Circle continues the saga with the children and grandchildren of the major players from
Time Will Tell coming to the fore. Can our planet be saved? These five books follow the lives of these families over the course of 117 years.
Time Will Tell Series 1-5 has all five books in one e-book for $4.95!
