Watching - (A Different Type of Time Travel) by Jeffrey Jay Levin (Paperback)

About the Book

A classic supernatural crime thriller, based on an actual event, and fortified by the insightful journey of the character's soul.

Book Synopsis

"Watching is an immersive and thoroughly-engaging time travel by flashback story with Cold Case meets Medium vs. the mob vibes. Levin has crafted an intricate and believable thriller that pulls you in and drags you from page to page. You can't help but keep reading." -Lena Gibson, author of The Edge of Life

After watching a documentary about a 50-year-old unsolved crime, an otherwise ordinary guy finds himself both blessed and burdened by the ability to travel through time and space, but not in the physical sense, and only as it may relate to that unsolved crime.

Braving the debilitating physical effects of his space time continuum journeys, he faces 1970s Mob bosses and their cronies, and murder and deceit, from both sides of the law. Determined to solve the crime and find the long lost art, and buoyed by the still unclaimed $5,000,000 reward, he has to come up with a means of convincing the FBI that his information is valid, without being locked up himself.

Join him and his wife, Adrian, and FBI Special Agent Starling Hebert, who has her own personal reasons for helping, as they try to unravel the reasons behind this new-found ability and return the stolen masterpieces.
