A single act of heroism…
A devastating explosion…
Lives changed forever…

On August 22, 1970, Oswego College’s Treviso Hall is rocked by a powerful bomb blast—an act meant to protest the military’s use of academia to fuel war efforts. But what was intended as a message of defiance becomes a tragic turning point, claiming lives and shattering futures.

Terrance Howard, a security guard, sacrifices himself to save students from the blast. Jeremy Shebson, a young attorney, becomes a paraplegic after rushing back to rescue a trapped woman. And gifted Oswego student, Olivia Dunne, whose mathematical calculations have been weaponized by the U.S. military to support the war effort in Vietnam, finds herself entangled in the web of radicals behind the attack—haunted by guilt, torn between love and conscience.

As the survivors struggle to rebuild, unanswered questions linger.
Who was truly responsible?
How deep did the conspiracy run?
And in the wake of destruction, can justice ever be served?

Spanning years and weaving together the fates of those caught in the explosion’s aftermath, A Ticket to Oswego is a gripping tale of idealism, sacrifice, and the unforeseen consequences of taking a stand.

For fans of historical fiction and literary thrillers, Larry S. Kaplan delivers a powerful narrative that questions the price of revolution and the resilience of the human spirit.
