The Moses Probe

by Ted Magnuson

Lt. Jac Flyte is all prepared to embark for Alpha Centauri when Cheryl, his former fiancé calls. Dr. Cheryl Bellini is a cosmologist and she asks him...if before he goes away forever...would he want to see what Edmund Leahy has done... Cheryl's colleague, Dr. Leahy, has cracked the code in an otherworldly artifact called the Moses Probe. The secret is far more than mere transit to Alpha C at the speed of light- It is instantaneous transit to any planet in the known Universe. For these efforts, Jac knows Leahy has been mocked and maligned. Yet Jac believes in Cheryl. He puts aside his convictions that Faster-Than-Light technology is as good as it gets, he risks his mission to Alpha C and goes with Cheryl to call on Leahy. When they go, they find Leahy murdered, even as his work is about to be destroyed. Quickly, Jac and Cheryl must pick up where Leahy left off, commit themselves to each other, and to the quest for intergalactic laurels-or die.

About the author

Ted Magnuson (1951-) born Detroit, Michigan. After completing an MBA in Florida he traveled west to write business insurance for sawmills, lumber yards and high risk properties. He saw 'succession planning' first hand as the companies owned by his clients passed from father to son. As his own sons grew, going from high school to college to career, Ted recalled his own passage to adulthood. His father too, was an entrepreneur. All this experience moved him to write ‘The Bouchard Legacy. Besides being an avid student of human nature, Ted loves the out of doors, especially cycling up and over mountain passes for days on end. He dances the Samba and reads voraciously.

In writing this book, I've discovered many serendipitous connections between things I already knew, what I speculated about what I didn't know...and what I came to find out! Please read my book. Thank you!
