Synopsis

*THE TIMES THRILLER BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024*

YOU’RE STUCK IN A LOOP. YOU’RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME. CAN YOU BEAT THE CLOCK – AND SAVE YOURSELF? READ THE HIGH CONCEPT, PULSE-POUNDING NEW THRILLER

Perfect for fans of Clare Mackintosh’s Hostage and Gillian McAllister’s Wrong Place Wrong Time

'Ataut fusion of relativistic physics and physical violence, powered by the supreme love of a mother for her son' The Times
‘I absolutely LOVED this. Groundhog Day meets Hostage. A great idea, brilliantly executed’ Mark Edwards, bestselling author of Here to Stay
----

You’re on a routine flight from London to LA.

Hundreds of people are on board – including your estranged son, Theo.

Ten hours into the flight, something goes terribly wrong. The engines fail. The plane enters a steep dive.

Everything goes black.

Then, you wake up. It’s one hour before the crash. You can’t believe it – you’re alive. You, your beloved son, and all the other passengers are safe.

Until, terrifyingly, the same chain of events repeats itself. Again, and again, and again.

You’re the only one who knows what’s about to happen.

The lives of everyone on board depend on you.

But how will you stop it, when you’re running out of time?

----

Praise for Cameron Ward
