Author Bio
John Newton was born in Simi Valley, California, and attended twelve different schools until he finally got it right and graduated from a high school on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. The Cypriots soon realized it was in their national interest to ship John back to the United States. He meandered through college until the administration bribed him to leave with two apparently contradictory degrees: theology and electrical engineering. He is currently working as an electrical engineer, robotics programmer, landlord, part-time farmer, father of seven, and married the wife of his dreams. Sometimes he even writes a thing or two.

Summary
Medieval Spain, 1212. Orphaned and alone, 16-year-old Francisco is forced to survive on the brutal streets of Toledo. In his possession is a stone with the power to heal any wound, a secret he guards fiercely. His father’s dying words echo in his mind: “Do no harm lest you break the charm.”
Living under the shadow of ruthless gangs, Francisco uses the stone to secretly heal the outcasts of society, always staying one step ahead of danger. But his life changes forever when mysterious figures reveal the stone’s origins—a technology from over a thousand years in the future, linked to a temporal war that threatens to consume history itself.
Francisco faces an impossible choice: join the enigmatic Sittiri in their battle to protect the timeline or lose the stone and the hope it brings to those who need it most. As he grapples with his destiny, Francisco must navigate treacherous alliances, ancient secrets, and his own conflicted heart.
The Healing Stone is the first thrilling installment in the Shadows of Time series, where history and future collide, and the fate of both lies in the hands of an unlikely hero.
