When Claire Hilyer receives a mysterious letter and package from her best friend Tony, she thinks it an unexpected romantic gesture. Then she learns Tony sent it over twenty-five years ago, before his birth. Intrigued, Claire visits Tony's house. She arrives in time to see him fighting a stranger, and a moment later, they vanish before her eyes into the past.
Tony's package - a diary electronically forged from his thoughts - is a cry for help from 2017 to Claire. He must learn to survive without money, family or friends in an era before his birth. Meanwhile, a deadly enemy craves Tony's invention - a time travelling device - for his own deadly purposes and stalks him from the past and the future.
Can Claire save Tony and bring him home before time runs out?
Bootstrap's Journey is a tale of fantastic hope, danger and romance as Tony finds himself embroiled in his personal history, a timeline he mustn't change despite his inner urges.

Chris Johnson's stories blend science fiction, light urban fantasy, and a dash of quirky humour. He loves to include wise-cracking heroes (and heroines) who are stuck in strange situations from which they have to escape.
That can happen after surviving the 1980s on a diet of Atari computers, comics, and lots of cool music in a small town.
Chris graduated with a Bachelors degree in Computer Science from CQU and a smattering of public relations and communication. He also has numerous hobbies and interests that include running, kungfu, and ripping the wings off butterflies before re-attaching them with glue.
In his varied career, Chris has hustled at Three-Card Monte, read celebrities palms, publicly predicted the 1992 Los Angeles Riots a week beforehand, and hunted ghosts. But his most unusual gig is performing as a professional mentalist and psychic entertainer on stage, television, radio, and at private events. He's performed shows for the public, at corporate functions, and private parties -- and still does today.
Chris is also collaborating on a romance novel with the love of his life for future release.
