Description
No Man is Rich Enough to Buy Back His Past.
Aging screenwriter Ed Richie wakes up one morning to find himself nine months in his own past. The following day he jumps three years.
What is happening to him? Is he going mad? Where will it end?
In 2030—thirteen years after Richie's jaunt begins—journalist Ella Croft is investigating the life screenwriter and celebrated novelist Ed Richie, who mysteriously vanished years before. She interviews friends, acquaintances, old lovers—and uncovers something that will change her life forever...
A bold new time-warping direction from multiple award-winning author of Helix and Helix Wars, Eric Brown.

Featured Reviews
"No man is Rich Enough to Buy Back His Time". That said, I certainly do not regret time spent reading this book! In Brown's spin on time travel, he has created a scenario that we have all dreamed of at some point...."if I had only known then what I know now".
Ed is a well known writer who has had a long string of short lived romances. None ended well. One day he simply disappears. Ella is a journalist who many years later, investigates his disappearance. The time line for this book is from the 80's to 2030.
While Ella is interviewing people and looking for clues, Richie is randomly jumping back in time. Each time he questions whether he is going insane or whether this is really happening; and if it is, when will it end?
A good read for people who enjoy time travel fiction.
