Driving home after a bad day, Danielle "Dan" Lent is transported from her car into a subterranean laboratory. Confused and disoriented, she has no choice but to trust the stranger Ric, who claims to be a time agent. He recruits Dan to investigate illegal time travel. However, Dan finds herself caught in a loop of time switches, thrown back and forth between the lab and a rainy parking lot where a stray border collie offers her company. Desperate to find a way home, Dan tries to figure out why she has become the pawn of criminal forces-and why her name and scientific work seem to be so important a few centuries down the line. With the help of Ric and her new dog friend, Dan sets out to untangle the twisted timelines. In a race against time, she is risking everything she has-her life, love, and future.

On nearly every timeline so far, it ended like this, with a game of Welters. Dean Fogg against the Beast. This time, however, the Dean finds out why the Beast took his eyes and hands rather than killing him outright.

Jihoon hasn't slept well in years. Not since he survived the accident that killed the woman he loved. Yingyue never leaves her house. Not since her parents died in a car crash two years ago. Both crippled by their own fears, the two of them should never work out. After all, two wrongs don't make a right. Yet somehow, perhaps each recognizing they are kindred spirits bound by the things that haunt them, they are drawn to each other like the moon pulls the ocean tide. Can their blossoming romance help them break through the confines of their fears or will it pull them further down under like a leaf trapped under the surface of a frozen lake? --- Update schedule: Once a month.

Zhao Lian is a sheriff without a county. A member of an old magical order called the Shuli Go, she was raised to uphold the law and protect her fellow citizens.

In her wandering she's brushed against the full breadth of the Central Empire's populace: nobles, peasants, and everyone in between. The only group she's had little to do with are students: a group that rarely needs her services.

Brief extract Suddenly, the door had inched open, half a wrinkled face visible behind the tautened chain. "Hello. Who is it?" The words I was going to say had of course been well-rehearsed, repeated over and over in my mind like a mantra, but now that the moment had arrived I found myself struggling to remember them. "Mrs Harvey... I think that you might... well, that you might be..." The door closed, then slowly opened once more, the chain this time unlatched. And there she was before me - half a metre away, within arm's reach. Thin lips gradually crooking upwards at each corner like the slow beatific kindling of a summer's dawn. "Oh yes love, I know who you are." Length: 70,000 words About the author: Originally from England but for the last 16 years I've been living in Italy. I hope therefore that the Italian aspects of the novel will have a certain gloss of authenticity.
