The Cultist's Retreat (The Erik Midgard Case Files Volume 4)
How do you solve a murder when you cannot reveal you are an undercover detective? The development of time travel undermined most traditional religions in the Solar System by proving there is no such thing as fate. But it left a void that had to be filled. Today, many people venerate science and evolution, but some worship time itself. In the rings of Saturn, one of the Solar System's greatest sporting events is approaching, providing the perfect cover for the secretive temporal cults to hold their annual inter-faith retreat. Members from every sect will meet to socialise, discuss their ideas and beliefs, and display their latest inventions, which can manipulate time in ways that should not be possible. Time-travelling police detective Erik Midgard is also attending in disguise, to gather intelligence on the cults for the Chronological Operations Agency. It is a risky and complicated assignment, made harder because the laws of time appear to be suddenly - and inexplicably - changing, which could have dire consequences for Erik himself. The last thing he needs is another murder to solve. Undercover in a small hotel, in a jurisdiction he is not meant to be in, with a killer among the guests who may be the most intelligent and cunning adversary he has ever faced, Erik must solve the case, and the mystery of his own origins, before it is too late. One way or another, Erik's time is almost up. The final volume of the Erik Midgard Case Files.Complete

Be strong," the other kid replied, trying to comfort him. "How can I be strong? She was so small... how can someone be so cruel?" Just then, a girl around their age, who had been quietly observing the scene from a short distance, spoke up. "It's just a street cat, guys. Why are you making such a fuss? She always roamed around here. Some bike or car must have accidentally hit her, unable to see her in time. Just stop the drama already." 'The two kids were left speechless, their eyes fixed blankly on the third girl's face, shocked by her harsh words. She was only six years old, yet she spoke without any sympathy or emotion, her words cutting deep into their grief.' "In a town where secrets lurked, a discovery led to a fiery confrontation. An escape left one in flames, but that was just the beginning. A letter, a confession, a mental asylum - a twisted tale of torment and manipulation. The story unfolds, shrouded in mystery, gripping readers in a web of suspense and deceit. The characters' fates hang in the balance, their destinies intertwined in a chilling narrative of love, betrayal, and madness."Complete
