ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – June 4, 2026 – Independent author R.W.K. Clark has announced the release of Passage of Time, a psychological suspense and domestic drama novel that examines the ethical and emotional consequences of scientific obsession.
The story follows Calvin Cooper, a brilliant scientist consumed by the pursuit of reversing aging and achieving immortality through a clandestine medical formula. As his research deepens, Calvin becomes increasingly detached from reality, prioritizing his experiment over personal relationships and moral responsibility.
At the center of the story is his wife, Elaina Cooper, who represents emotional stability and loyalty while witnessing the gradual collapse of their relationship. As Calvin’s obsession intensifies, the boundary between scientific ambition and destructive fixation begins to disappear, placing both characters on a path toward emotional and psychological breakdown.
Rather than focusing on science fiction spectacle, Passage of Time explores the human cost of ambition, emotional neglect, and the psychological consequences of prioritizing legacy over love. The novel highlights themes of mortality, regret, and the fragility of human connection when confronted with unchecked desire for control over time itself.
“With Passage of Time, I wanted to explore the psychological emptiness that drives a person to sacrifice love for legacy,” said author R.W.K. Clark. “Calvin’s journey reflects the danger of allowing ambition to replace human connection, and the realization that some pursuits come at a devastating personal cost.”
The novel is available in paperback and digital formats through major online retailers, including Amazon.
