Produktbeschreibung

Busting Timothy Leary: An Action-Packed Novel of Love, Truth, and Transformation set in the tumultuous 1960s From the battlefields of Vietnam to the psychedelic heart of San Francisco, from covert missions to spiritual awakenings-Busting Timothy Leary is a sweeping tale of passion, danger, and redemption set against one of America's most turbulent eras. Sean Kelly has lived many lives: star quarterback, Green Beret, spy. Scarred by an abusive childhood and hardened by war, he is recruited to infiltrate Timothy Leary's LSD-fueled counterculture at the height of revolution. Immersed in acid trips, communes, and political rebellion, Sean finds himself battling enemies both external and within. Each mission tests his loyalty, his conscience, and his very sense of self. But beneath the espionage lies a deeper journey-a spiritual journey-a search for inner truth. Drawn into mind-blowing visions and fleeting glimpses of grace, Sean discovers that his greatest struggle is not with governments or radicals, but with the darkness inside himself. Love, betrayal, brushes with history, and near-death encounters force him toward a single, terrifying choice: obey the mysterious command to "live in the light of truth," or risk losing not just his mission, his marriage, and his freedom-but his soul. Vivid, emotional, and richly historical, Busting Timothy Leary is both a gripping adventure and a profound spiritual quest. For readers of historical fiction, counterculture memoirs, and stories of transformation, it is a reminder that even in chaos, truth and love can prevail.

Autorenporträt

Bernard Ross is not a best-selling New York Times author, although his wife believes he should be. He began writing at 76 after selling his stake in a tech company. His books aren't about business; they are adventures from the hippie-drenched 1960s-a subject he's well-versed in. He's written Sipping Sunlight, a memoir, and Busting Timothy Leary, a historical novel.He splits his time between his homes in Delray Beach, Florida, and Brewster, New York. Ross attended City College of New York and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, became a CPA, founded three companies, and co-founded another. Ross, a child of Holocaust survivors, was born in Poland and moved to Bolivia as an infant. When he was five years old, he immigrated to the U.S.A. with his family. Ross has practiced meditation since 1969 and credits his success in life and business to the benefits he has gained from meditation and following the ethical principles of his spiritual path. His hobbies include tennis, pickleball, travel, photography, gardening, nature walks, and writing. Ross is happily married and blessed to have a wonderful, close-knit family, including four children and four grandchildren.
