When time travelers fail test after test to significantly alter the past, most financial backers abandon the Global Research Consortium leaving veteran traveler Marta Hamilton to administer a vastly scaled-down project. She must protect the past from a greedy future, fend off political meddling, and foil a murder plot originating in a parallel universe. She presides over a conspiracy to hide the truth of her best friend’s death while coping with a confusing and discomforting romantic entanglement involving fellow traveler Marshall Grissom.

Marta, who has by professional necessity always distanced herself from emotional commitment, lapsed by allowing herself the luxury of friendship with Sheila Schuler and a night of wild sex with Marshall. Now, Sheila is probably dead, and—according to a genius physicists’ theory—Marshall soon will be. As she assumes her role as administrator of the time travel program, Marta must choose between the risks of loving someone, or the lonely safety of emotional solitude.

(No cats were harmed in the telling of this story.)

Review

From the beginning of this series it was easy to tell I was going to be hooked, I was so ready for Book 2. I'm always interested to see how a narrator will elevate the book.

The details and information that the author, Mike Murphey, input into this story really made it work. Took only a few chapters for me to be pulled back into this world.

I found this to be a well-written story that really makes the reader want to purchase the next book in the series. The author does an amazing job with making the story come alive and really pulling the reader in. There were some sentences that just left me thinking for a while. I found this book to be difficult to put down and I just wanted to continue reading so I could find out who was who and what would happen at the end.
