Back to Jack: A Time Synchers Adventure (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780989890908)

Carefree Iraq war veteran Jack Banyan finds himself in the fight of his life during his stay at a mysterious dude ranch. What started out a peaceful weekend filled with fresh air and fresh cowgirls becomes a nightmarish experience that is surreal yet defining. Authentic Wild West actors, a nasty outlaw named Bart, marauding Indians, and a beautiful woman all contrive to make Jack believe he is actually in 1870 Colorado. Convinced he is inside an elaborate leadership course, Jack is completely unprepared for the impending conflict. In his first disastrous engagement, he loses his prized hiking boots and his dignity as his opponents are playing by a completely foreign set of rules. His unusual infatuation and spiritual connection with feisty young widow Hope adds to Jack's uncertainty, and forces him to re-examine the man he really is. Unsure of the reason for his ordeal, and searching for the way out, Jack throws in with the innocents in their battle with Bart and his thugs. A man of action, and now bare feet, Jack is all too ready to play the game using the tools of the age, his modern wits, and some worn out, holey boots. Whether fighting on the technological battlefield of Iraq or the dusty streets of the Old West, Jack finds ingenuity and bold action are the keys to success. When the bullets turn out to be real, the cost of his decisions increases perilously. Time and fate ultimately drive Jack to a heroic battle with an unknown outcome. Jack must choose between an escape back to the safety and shallow encounters of his world, and a dangerous gamble that he can survive long enough to win the girl, prevent Bart from altering history, and start a new life in an old time.
