In Light of Us by Lee Strauss

In Light of Us by Lee Strauss

Sinatra was at his finest at the Copa Room in 1966. Can the entertainer be even better, enhanced by new technology sixty years later?

Twin brothers from Lakehurst, New Jersey, join forces to bring Frank Sinatra back to life in 2026, reprising and updating a concert series staged in Las Vegas in 1966 by the legendary entertainer.

After earning their masters degrees in computer science from Oxford University, Lorenzo and Aldo Fiore set off on different career paths only to find their way back into a collaboration that pushes technology to the edges of possibility, as they each reach their own personal objectives though the process.

Sinatra at the Sands -2026 is full of twists and turns, successes and setbacks, each shedding light on what it means to be human, as well as the limitations of our species to predict outcomes for ourselves and for future generations.

Although the novel is speculative and the climactic events perhaps not totally possible at this time, the technology within its pages exists for readers of today, provoking questions about the limits of our science just a few short years away.
