A Flash in Time is a sci-fi novel with magnetic plasma, zany adventures, and pulpy characters. Within its pages, John Noland Frye helps readers unlock the secrets of the universe.
Have you ever looked up at the night sky and wondered about things out there? Or thought about why things happen, like why an apple falls? People have asked these questions about how the universe works. We’ve learned about tiny particles that make everything and how our universe might have started.
This is what Frye sparks inside his readership, giving it all a twist!
The book asks: what if all the electronics we use—phones, microwaves, Wi-Fi—could disrupt how the universe works?
A Flash in Time imagines a future where our technology causes big problems. These stories, though fictional, prompt us to consider how our actions impact the universe in unexpected ways.
All the Electricity Around Us: A Hidden Danger?
Our modern world has many inventions. From microwaves that cook food to phones that connect us, and radar that helps planes fly, we are surrounded by invisible energy. This energy powers our lives. But what if too much of this energy in the air isn’t safe? What if it could cause big problems for the universe, making everything go wrong?
In A Flash in Time, too much EM energy accumulated has caused a disaster. The book explains how our air has become so full of energy from our devices that it’s like a dry forest waiting for a spark. Frye suggests that when extra EM energy mixes with Earth’s magnetic fields and the air’s plasma (a charged gas), it creates a mixture.
And if this mixture ever goes bad, it could unleash forces beyond human understanding.
A Flash: When Everything Changes
The novel begins with a science experiment intended to improve communication. In the year of our Lord 2006, inside a top-secret laboratory in New Mexico, scientists were working on something big, something revolutionary. At the cusp of a world-changing experiment, they attempted to turn on a radio antenna to finally connect it to the ENet, a brand-new method for global communication. They hoped it would change everything. But, inevitably, something went wrong.
Instead of connecting to the ENet, there was a flash of light and a large explosion. This was a rupture, a consequence of pushing past the boundaries of magnetic plasma without a thorough understanding of it. The explosion opened a doorway, and it twisted our understanding of space and time.
After that, things went strange. People began to disappear without a reason, without a trace. Landmarks vanished. Whole places became voids. The world was plunged into chaos: people, places, and monuments all ceased to exist, leaving only empty space where they once were.
Where had they gone? What had happened to them? What was going to happen next?
And worse, dead bodies appeared out of nowhere, cut into pieces.
What was normal became weird, and everyone wanted answers.
Finding the Truth: A Race Against Time
As fear spread, a search for answers began, and a team was assembled that had to figure out what was happening to the world. Corporal Ivanov “Ivey” Longfeather, a police officer from a Native American reservation, was chosen for his mind and knowledge of the land. Two police detectives, Jaylee Washington and Bart Williams, also joined, bringing their skills to the fore. This new team was scared, but they realized the problem was bigger than any crime they had encountered.
Their usual ways of solving crimes didn’t work. The disappearances and bodies defied explanation, pushing investigators into new territory. The evidence pointed not to human acts, but to something that was twisting the fabric of reality. It was clear that the devastation came from a scientific misstep.
So, the team, driven by desperation, began working with the scientists from E-R-Mag Labs who caused the problem.
This team-up is a core part of A Flash in Time.
The police officers, who had previously dealt with hard facts, were now facing scientific enigmas and universal conundrums. The scientists, who might have been proud before, were now faced with the consequences of their unchecked ambition. Everything had gone topsy-turvy, and there was little else they could do alone without the other.
Together, they had to race against time, sift through data, rethink long-held perspectives, and try to reverse the effects of the unleashed magnetic plasma energies.
Their journey through quantum physics and parallel dimensions is as action-packed as it is novel, as they try to understand how a “flash in time” could shatter their universe.
Beyond Our World: A Desert of Strange Creatures
The most unsettling part of A Flash in Time is Frye’s explanation of where the vanished people go. They hadn’t passed away. They had moved. The novel reveals that they found themselves stranded in a desert: a world of red sand under a twilight sky. And this place was not empty.
There were creatures there that looked like “grey aliens.”
But these were not friendly aliens. They were evolved hunters, their lithe bodies suggesting an altogether different evolutionary path, perhaps much closer to ancient dinosaurs and amphibians, but possessing a non-human intelligence.
These “aliens” were not there to talk. They were predators, hunting the humans who appeared in their world. The dismembered bodies that had begun to appear in our world had an explanation: they were the remains of those who did not survive in the red-sand dimension.
