Tomorrow’s Borrowed Trouble features a blend of fantasy, action, humor, and romance.

The main character Katya Sevnik is a strong, independent young woman plagued with a condition known as temporal amnesia. She can’t remember what year she is from and is trying desperately to locate her family. Because of Katya’s time displacement and amnesia, she has not matured beyond the age of twenty two. She becomes a sponge in every time period she visits, soaking up the culture and instantly becoming one with the period.

 Finally discover what year Katya is from.

 Katya continues her relationship with fellow Time Pilgrim, Cyrus and finally become engaged to one another in a tender and romantic moment.

 Time Pilgrim, Louie Cartier ends up on the banks of the Fox River in the year 62 B.C. The occupants of the land are a friendly tribe of Native Americans and as they eventually take him in as one of their own, Louie finds love with one of their maidens, Nova. He also meets his new canine companion…Hickory Dickory Doc.

A central plot within the story concerns a competing (and less responsible) organization called Sundial which had developed in Greenwich, England. Sundial’s CEO, (Big) Ben Hall, is determined to destroy National in the past or the present. As a result of one of their orchestrated attacks, National’s Time Pilgrims are being systematically wiped out of existence, one by one. The remaining group brainstorm to try and resolve the situation. This brings them all the way to Greenwich, England and right into Sundial’s headquarters.


Other time-travel adventures include the following:

  • Cathy Callahan, Howie Miller and Thomas Earnshaw are on Pilgrimage to various Civil War battles. In Fredericksburg, Virginia, Cathy is shot and taken to a southern estate to mend. There, the pilgrims befriend a female slave and discuss the war with the landowners.

  • Katya and Cyrus are commissioned to Boston and the Revolutionary period battle of Bunker Hill. They witness the Boston Tea Party and pay a visit to Paul Revere’s silver shop. While searching for information about Katya’s possible roots, they run into her long-lost sister, Lena. Also a time-traveler, they take her back to their own time and together, discover their beginnings.

  • Time Pilgrims, Howie Miller and girlfriend, Centehua take a lunch date in 1960 Elgin, Illinois on the day president hopeful, Senator Kennedy makes a campaign stop. They hold hands at the movies and watch The Time Machine, staring Rod Taylor. They sit in the back so they can share a kiss or two.

  • Back in 63 B.C., Louie Cartier and Native American, Nova become united in betrothal. One fateful day a rival tribe attacked the village. Louie and Nova fought side by side until an arrow pierces her chest.

  • The sixteen year-old daughter of a National employee, April, has her baby with the help of Katya, her sister, Lena and Cathy’s son, Kevie. Kevie takes on the role of step-dad and caregiver to April and her baby, Emily.

Despite the seriousness of the situations the time pilgrims find themselves in, there is always an element of fun, romance and realism in the story. Here, the reader is brought into a world where time travel is completely plausible. As the reader transports with the pilgrims, they are truly able to share the experience and get a glimpse of the world of the past.
