About this ebook
When Physicist Chloe Phillipson tries to go on vacation with her family, their past catches up to them.
Lesley L. Smith
All right, I confess! I love physics. I blame my misspent youth reading science fiction by the likes of Asimov, Heinlein, and Clarke. Not surprisingly, I also love science fiction. I grew up in Missouri, in a family of overeducated overachievers. Following in their footsteps, I've earned far too many degrees including an M.S. and a Ph.D. in Elementary Particle Physics and an MFA in Writing Popular Fiction. Hmm? I may have a split personality. The evidence shows I've authored or co-authored many scientific articles, and am a longtime member of the American Physical Society. I'm also a founder and editor of the speculative fiction ezine http://www.electricspec.com and a longtime member of the Science Fiction/Fantasy Writers of America. Both sides of my personality live in Boulder, Colorado where I do physics by day and science fiction by night. Please visit me on the web at http://www.lesleylsmith.com.

I threw open the front door. I'm home!
My family's cute little ranch-style house was right near the university where I worked.
My older son Zach looked up from where he was playing a video game in front of the T.V. Gee, Mom, are you home?
He snickered.
I closed the door, placed my keys on the hook on the wall and hung up my messenger bag.
My hubby Aidan stepped out of the kitchen with a bowl in his
