The unintended recipient of the future warning (a simple corn farmer in 1899) now possesses knowledge of the future, including the assassination of President Kennedy. Will the farmer be able to prevent any of the coming atrocities of the 20th Century or, in spite of man's ability to travel through time, would God's sovereignty demand that the horrible events of history's past can never be changed?
The Visitor, by J.L. Pattison, is a short story best described as part science fiction, part history, part time travel, and part mystery. With a tablespoon of politics, a pinch of dystopia, and a dash of conspiracy, this tale will take you on an entertaining ride that climaxes against the backdrop of the Kennedy assassination.
See why The Visitor has received rave reviews and why it's being compared to The Twilight Zone.
