Book Review By Catherine Burns
Falling in the Garden by Walter Klimczak

Michael Sullivan, having lost his best friend, feels lost and alone. While wandering the woods near his home, he hears a stray voice on his walkie-talkie. Ashley Haddow, the girl he begins to speak with, is alive and well in the year 1946, while Michael speaks from 1999. Before they can understand why this is happening, Michael discovers that Ashley is not alive in his time. His search to find out what happened to her begins. In time, Michael unearths a twisted experiment that causes them both to believe they are not the original Michael and Ashely, but "illegal" copies created by a hidden and mysterious corporation. Someone inside this company, however, has their best interests in mind. Michael's only hope is that he might actually be able travel back to Ashely, or she sent forward to him.
