Tom Wyatt's(U.S. Marine of the early seventies) past life is about to collide with his present, all as a result of a ghostly mistake made surrounding his current life's demise. This interruption in death will force his past life to enter into the present and change his destiny suddenly, at great expense emotionally and with a great love loss. Wyatt's current life had few parallels with his past earthly adventure, one life not reflective of the other with the exception of a few moments in war and a couple of old friends that reappear from the past, one woman's love and a kind and gentle heart buried in this main character. Deep in the midst of adventure, ungentlemanly conduct, funny tales, war, and desperate situations, Wyatt embarks on a journey that will enthrall the reader with the turn of each page. Next Time is an entertaining work of fiction that has within it a clever twist or two, a corrupt yet lovable main character, romance, and an ending that would make anyone look forward to their own next time.
