Great reading, but a little disjointed (

As escapist fiction, this book is a good way to while away a few hours. Although I had a little trouble with a few areas, such as the development of character background (Ch. 2) and the way the story seems to have a deus ex machina feel to it. There is one question I have that was not addressed in this book, but may or may not be addressed in future books: "What will happen when there are too many people to account for having been in one place at one time?" The main story is the introduction to time travel for John Surrey, ex-LAPD detective who now works for Timeshare. The story jumps from an ongoing investigation by a Senate subcommittee to Johns first exploit in time in which he meets Althea Rowland, the woman he falls in love with.
As the story goes on, he gets involved in some intrigue and other escapades. As I said in the title of this review, there is a somewhat disjointed plot line, but like the movie "Pulp Fiction", it does come together at the end.
