BLURB:
Ricky Montgomery had just graduated high school in June 1976 and
was enjoying life as an 18-year-old teenager. He was hired by the Dawson City
Police Force, and after graduating from police college he was assigned to work
as an undercover operative in a motorcycle gang.
Ricky,
although happy, was struggling living his double life as a cop and biker. Then
it happened: during a biker war, Ricky's life was saved by agents from the
World Council (TWC). TWC was created by the world's leaders to prevent manmade disasters
from happening and to liaise with aliens who have been monitoring mankind for
hundreds of years. TWC's mandate, with the assistance of aliens, is to ensure
mankind's continued existence.
TWC
is a highly secretive organization, whose agents have the ability to travel
through time, to change history, and to take lives to save lives. Ricky becomes
a TWC agent and discovers that TWC's command staff is making unethical
decisions, hiding secrets about aliens and trying to reduce the world's
population through biological warfare. Ricky teams up with other agents and
tries to save mankind and the world from disaster.

EXCERPT
Irene reached over and held onto my hand. “Listen Rick, I know you must be overwhelmed with everything but let me try to explain everything to you. Please don't ask me any questions until I’m finished explaining everything.” Irene took a deep breath and started explaining in a calm voice, “In the last 100 years technology has advanced at a rapid rate, to the point that time travel is now possible. When you jumped through that window and walked down that corridor through that round opening, you went from the year 1979 to the year 2079.”
“What the fuck?” I whispered.
“Hold on, let me explain. For hundreds of years, there were
reported sightings of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO’s) around the world.
There were some intentional and none intentional contact between these aliens
and humans. When one of their spaceships crashed in the 1950’s in the United
States they attempted to recover the remains of their pilots and made initial
contact with humans. In the late 1960's to the 1980's, with the threat of
nuclear weapons being used and the world’s environment deteriorating, to save
mankind, the world’s leaders created The World Council (TWC). TWC is a highly
secretive Agency and its mandate is to ensure the continued existence of
mankind and the planet. Part of the mandate is to liaison with our alien
associates.”
Mind blowing as this seemed she was just getting
started. “TWC was divided into Divisions
based on geography. TWC is a self-sustainable Corporation employing hundreds of
people from around the world. The smartest scientists, mechanics, engineers and
computer experts have been recruited into TWC. Over time and the collection of
massive amounts of data, self analyzing computers were developed, and
technology continued to develop itself under the guidance of engineers and
scientists.
“About 10 years ago in our time period in the year 2069,
with the assistance of our alien friends, TWC developed the ability to have
people travel through time. It’s still a really new process but we can travel
back in time and prevent certain tragic events such as nuclear accidents and terrorist
attacks to save lives and in certain situations take lives. We have
coordinators researching people’s family trees, reviewing historical events and
evaluating how our actions may affect society in the future. We want to save
and protect society, save mankind from self-destruction and save the planet.
“Every time we travel back in time and take any type of
action there is always a reaction that changes history. For example, think of a
historical event like a major train derailment that kills thousands of people
in a populated area. The train derailment is also an ecological disaster that
affects the world’s environment. Our researchers and assignment coordinators
can research how the disaster happened and we can deploy agents to try to
prevent the disaster from happening.”
“Unfortunately, we do not have enough resources or
technology to prevent all man-made disasters from occurring. We can’t stop
wars, massive numbers of deaths from happening or prevent deadly diseases from
killing people. We also can’t interfere
with any weather-related disasters.”
