The Man Who Saw Seconds by Alexander Boldizar: Seeing the Future and Challenging Morality

This week, I talk with Alexander Boldizar about his new thriller The Man Who Saw Seconds. We dive into the gray areas of morality, the vulnerabilities of government structures and the willingness to do anything for the people you love.

The Man Who Saw Seconds Synopsis

Preble Jefferson can see five seconds into the future.

Otherwise, he lives an ordinary life. But when a confrontation with a cop on a New York City subway goes tragically wrong, those seconds give Preble the chance to dodge a bullet—causing another man to die in his place.

Government agencies become aware of Preble’s gift, a manhunt ensues, and their ambitions shift from law enforcement to military R&D. Preble will do whatever it takes to protect his family, but as events spiral out of control, he must weigh the cost of his gift against the loss of his humanity.

A breathless thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page, The Man Who Saw Seconds explores the nature of time, the brain as a prediction machine, and the tension between the individual and the systems we create. Alexander Boldizar provides an adrenaline-pumping read that will leave you contemplating love, fear and the abyss.
