Publisher's Synopsis

A time-travel tale of love and murder...


In 1973, 19-year-old Cassie returns to her home town in coastal Massachusetts after her first year away at college. The next day, her boyfriend, Julian, is implicated in a brutal killing.


"Once I started I couldn't put it down!" -Bookshelf Adventures


Seven years later, a freak occurrence gives Cassie a unique time-traveling ability, allowing her to re-live that earlier time with the benefit of foreknowledge.


"A cleverly plotted fantasy thriller with a strong cast of characters." -The Wishing Shelf Book Awards


Cassie, who has never gotten over her feelings for Julian, asks herself the question, what if he was innocent? Now she has a way to go back in time and witness what actually happened.


"Mystery fans will love this plot device, which takes a straightforward whodunit to an otherworldly level." -The BookLife Prize


In witnessing the truth, she inadvertently reveals herself to the killer, who begins to pursue her in past and present both. With no evidence beyond what she's seen during time travel, how can she hope to bring the killer to justice before she becomes the next victim?


Margie Benedict's "prose is crisp and purposeful, charged with feeling, and always attuned to what will engage readers in each moment." (The BookLife Prize)
