Analogue Day: Paranormal adventure novel begs serious question: How Would Someone Cope if their TV Could Predict the Future?Written by Jason Ranford, ‘Analogue Day’ weaves fact around fiction to tell the gripping story of a family who discover a television in their attic that can warn of future events. Moral dilemmas, terrorism and the government collide as this compelling discovery threatens falling into the wrong hands. Readers will be left questioning how they would use the information and if they would even divulge it to anyone at all… – Television is usually just a passive past-time but, for the family in Jason Ranford’s new novel, the discovery of very special television thrusts them into a world of unusual circumstances and dangers. Everything plays out in ‘Analogue Day’; an adventure novel that simultaneously leaves readers with plenty to think about in the real world. Synopsis:When the Hamilton family move into their new home in Cedar Grove, Connecticut, they think that all their troubles are behind them. Then one day, young Timothy discovers a clip of ancient dinosaur-like creatures roaming around the earth on an old portable television set while looking around in the upstairs attic. At first, his parents dismiss the transmission as nothing more than an old tv show or film, but as the family continue to receive strange messages from the past, they begin to wonder if the transmissions are in fact real. Then one evening they discover a broadcast of a passenger plane and its flight details a week before it explodes in mid-air. They then see a broadcast of a train leaving a railway station a few days before it is involved in a terrible crash. Could someone from the future really be sending messages back to the past warning of events yet to occur? What starts out as an innocent curiosity soon sets off a frightening and disturbing chain of events as the family try to warn the authorities of disasters and dangers that will soon come to pass and face a race for their own survival as an unknown enemy tries to thwart their plan to bring the transmissions out into the open. This high adrenaline, action-packed adventure will keep you on the edge of your seat as you try to uncover the mystery that is Analogue Day.“While its light and laden with entertaining quips, the narrative does present some very vivid moral dilemmas,” explains Ranford. “For example, mother Shelly believes that the television’s messages should be used for common good by warning people of upcoming events. However, at the same time, she also wants to protect her family from the scrutiny and danger such revelations would bring.”Continuing, “It all falls apart when the family become prey for terrorists; made worse by a police information leak. I want readers to heavily question what they would do if they made the discovery. There are certainly a lot of options to weigh up!”Reviews have been extremely positive. S. A. Fawcett comments, “The plot itself is extremely clever - not a new idea, by any means, but what Jason Ranford does is bring this scenario bang up to date, to an age where 'analogue' really does sound like a word from the last century. The story itself is fast-paced and imaginative, and the characters come alive immediately.”Debbie Kay adds, “I really enjoyed reading this novel. It was exciting, educational and not too scary which believe me, I don't particularly enjoy. I also loved the way the family got involved with adventures to ensure that the unknown attackers didn't pursue them any further, even though there was a nice twist at the end. I would thoroughly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in light paranormal fiction or family adventure.”
