Synopsis

How would it change your life if you could hear the sounds of tomorrow, ghosts whispering the sounds of events from the future?

Jessi O’Donnell is a typical teenager in high school with close friends and so-so popularity. In her secret life, she loves being a blackbelt in martial arts, which gives her incredible confidence but few social skills.

As the result of a major head injury, Jessi McDonald discovers she can hear future sounds. She decides to keep her ability a secret from everyone except her closest friend so people won’t label her as being crazy.

One day when Jessi is at work, she hears someone being murdered and crying out for help. She runs to help but seeing no one there she realizes the murder will happen in the future, in precisely twenty-four hours.

Now she must decide how to prevent a murder from taking place without others thinking she’s crazy or somehow involved. Follow Jessi as she attempts to stop a murder only she, and the killer, know about.

Sounds of Tomorrow is an action-packed, adventure-filled fantasy/mystery with a hint of romance and a surprise ending that will knock your socks off. You’ll love this story if you’re a fan of Issac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, or Frank Herbert.

Author Biography

Drew Bankston lives in the Rocky Mountains with his wife, two amazingly perfect dogs, and a garden.

Before he started writing science fiction, Drew received his bachelor’s degree in Bio-Ag Sciences from Colorado State University. After that, just to shake things up, he never really used that degree but worked various jobs in retail and Asset Protection with some really important people who are way too dignified to be named here. He’s still working but would eventually like to write full-time and stop working for other people. He likes pie and chocolate, as everyone should.

Her friends have offered to help her figure out who the murderer is and who will be the victim. Here is a short conversation which her friends are having at the police station with a detective. How would YOU explain that someone is about to be killed and the only evidence you have is that your friend heard it happen already?

Book Excerpt

Sounds of Tomorrow

“Sorry, sir,” Barry spoke up. “My girlfriend and I have some information about a possible murder.”
O’Malley leaned forward. “You have just used two words in the same sentence that I don’t like to hear, Barry. Do you know what those two words are?”
Barry shook his head.
“Those two words, Barry, are ‘possible’ and ‘murder’. Murder is not a nice word around here, and it concerns us a great deal. So please tell me what you know about this.”
Again silence filled the room. O’Malley looked back and forth between the two of them. Finally, his eyes rested on Erin and he said in a louder and not so nice voice, “Well?”
