Book Overview

Tom Huxley, owner and CEO of a large accounting firm in the town of Jasmine, South Carolina, is on his way to the opening ceremony of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics when he is assaulted at a rest area near the Georgia border. His wife, Amanda, is notified by the Anderson County Sheriff that Tom was transported to a local hospital and currently in a coma. Within a matter of hours, she and her daughter Brie travel across the state to take up their vigil in the ICU waiting room, praying for him to awaken. The good news is that a day later he does regain consciousness; however, they then discover he has lost memory of the last twenty years of his life. While convalescing the following week in the hospital, he is horrified to find that he is a thirteen-year-old in a thirty-three-year-old man's body. Even weeks later at home, both he and Amanda are trying to cope with the reality that a teenager in an adult body who doesn't know his own family is incapable of being a husband and father. So how long will his amnesia last? Or is it actually real? And what was it Amanda found in Tom's car that poses an even bigger threat to their marriage? Retrogame contains all the ingredients that excites readers...mystery, suspense, surprise, secrets, action, murder, romance, deception and on top of it all, betrayal. Be electrified all the way up to the surprise ending.
