What Did I Do Tomorrow?

Time travel YA book set in London! A senior in high school sees his future 5 years in the future...and is a suspect in a murder case.Murder and time transference find Howell Trowman a victim of a past he cannot recollect, and the desperate quarry of a present and future he cannot comprehend.It’s a beautiful June day, the perfect climate for Founder’s Day at Budleigh Hall School. But for Howell the weather is in direct contrast to his mood. In a few hours he must tell his parents whether he will further his education at Oxford or begin work at Trowman Chemicals Ltd. Sitting in his room, mentally wrestling with his decision, he is suddenly overcome by a strange sensation. Feeling no fear or apprehension he realizes he is being transported out of his present life and time.Seemingly, in a matter of seconds, Howell has been delivered to the heart of London five years into the future and with absolutely no indication of what his new existence encompasses.Slowly and methodically, Howell sets out to reconstruct his immediate life. The facts are baffling— he is a poorly paid clerk of Solmex, his father s greatest business competitor; his home is a shabby and cheerless flat; and most frightening of all— he is the suspected murderer of a former school friend. Presented with such stark facts, and none of the circumstances, Howell sets out to resolve not only his current existence, but a vicious murder whose mystifying implications could end in Howell’s own brutal death.The blow caught him in the small of the back, hurling him forwards, face-first, into the opening. It was the cudgel, held firmly at shoulder level, that saved him from serious injury, perhaps worse — breaking the impact of his fall by catching against the side of the opening and becoming jammed there, in the gap where a brick had crumbled away, long enough to cause him to swing sideways then backwards, so that instead of hurtling down head-first he struck the steps first with his hip, then his shoulder, to go sliding down on his back, bumping from step to step, stunned rather than injured by that first impact, unconscious even before he reached the ground.
