Foy will provide a one-hour lecture and presentation to alternative health care, senior centers and business organizations at no charge. His primary goal is to discuss the viability of cellular memory and the potential for cellular memory to exist within Alzheimer patients.
“I believe Future Perfect raises some interesting questions about the human body, mind and spirit. The main character, Jamie McCord seems well suited to life in the Old West in spite of a case of amnesia. When memories return, however, they suggest otherwise since planes and cell phones inhabit his dreams. How is it possible for him to remember these things? Well, maybe memory doesn’t just exist within the mind. Perhaps memory exists elsewhere in the human body, in a cellular structure. Does cellular memory exist within human cells, similar to DNA, and how do we “unlock” it? That’s what makes Future Perfect intriguing – the potential tie-in to health and science,” explained Foy.
Foy, who is a former engineer, has a unique appreciation for speculative science fiction and shares it with his audience in “Future Perfect” (280 pages, published by ZoomBook Printing and Publishing). His unusual adventure grips readers at the outset through a memory challenged protagonist who regains consciousness in the Old West, and is immediately beset by a pack of Indian savages. Not knowing how or why he is there, the hero is vexed by mental images of airplanes and cell phones. When he starts to unravel his past, the pieces reveal a futuristic life more puzzling than the citizens of Ute, New Mexico, or even he, can understand.

Kudos to Foy’s “Future Perfect”
According to G. Miki Hayden, long-time trade journalist and author of several books including Writing the Mystery: A Start-to-Finish Guide, “Those aware of how the Russian nesting dolls work--with several figurines, each smaller one fitting into the next larger size—will see in them an analogy to the unusual and innovative structure of Mike Foy’s work. It’s a complex yet perfectly logical, interwoven fabric that can only be understood in its entirety, once complete.”
She continued, “Kudos to the author for his complex and alluring work and for this character who mesmerizes us as he begins to figure it all out. Anyone who enjoys a puzzle and some innovative science along the way will appreciate what Michael Foy has created with this material. The novel works both on the level of an intricate brainteaser and on the level of sheer moment-to-moment intelligent entertainment.” G. Miki Hayden is a prolific writer, a former board member of the Mystery Writers of America, and a past president of the Short Mystery Fiction Society.
