About the Book

In Search of Neva is a science fiction-fantasy thriller that takes place in the near future. Two central characters, Eric and Rick Styles live in parallel universes, and each desperately tries to win the love of the beautiful but enigmatic woman Neva Bryant. The novel has many twists and turns, As Eric and Rick deal not with the realities of parallel worlds, but they confront and face the additional horrors of cloning experiments which have changed and distorted the social, business and political fabric of life. A malignant Company’s experiments have occasioned an evil, sinister world in which murder, incest, and sexual perversions are common. Eric and Rick navigate in these troubled waters caused by the Company where they work, and they long to assuage their fears and doubts through the redemptive powers of love and redemption. They both discover, however, that the two "Nevas" who inhabit their respective parallel worlds are quite different in character and influence within the emerging worldscape caused by the scientific revolutions of human cloning and of parallel world transfer capabilities.
