Killing Time: The Story of Projekt Töten Zeit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999228838)

It is the present day, the American military, in an extraordinary effort equivalent to the Manhattan Project and the Moon Landing, developed the ultimate military weapon, time travel. It is a weapon so dangerous and potent that it could change the course of nations. The work was based on the theories of one of Hitler's top scientists, Dr. Josef Hans Scheel. Hitler demanded that Scheel find a way to send a message back in time to avoid the mistakes of the war. Where they failed, America succeeded, and using modern technology improved Scheel's work to the point where now sending humans back in time was possible. Air Force Captain Jake Kelly and Navy Seal Rick Wilson are diverted from their current duties with orders to report to the Pentagon. Unknown to them, they have been selected to be the first test subjects of this new capability. Their mission, travel back to the closing days of World War II and confiscate details about the project that fell into the hands of the Russians after the war. Time is of the essence as it is believed the Russians used that documentation and are close to completing their time travel device. Much to their surprise, they learn that the mission is one-way. Traveling to the past is a reality, but returning to the future is impossible. The two are faced with the harsh reality that everyone and everything must be left behind.The trip across time is a story of triumph and tragedy, and of love and betrayal, as the two Americans land in World War II Germany, only to find that they are not the first to travel to the past. In a daring attempt to secure the secrets of Projekt Töten Zeit they battle the unforeseen consequences of tampering with history in an all-out effort to protect America's future and its past. As a bonus, this volume concludes with short story prequel to "Killing Time" titled "The Assassination of Franklin Delano Roosevelt."
