Fighting Chance

Tim Raffleman is hearing voices in his dreams, voices beckoning him back in time. In an attempt to make peace with his dreams, he is advised to write about his past, beginning with an old photo he's had on his desk for more than twenty years. What follows is both a revelation and a reckoning, taking him back to the halls of Bishop High, back to his days when life was spent with friends and grunge music, to a time when life was all about chance. A story about how the past lives in the present, Paatalo's new novel reminds the reader about the fluidity of time and the circular nature of our lives.
