SECRETS NEVER STAY BURIED.
Tahiti, 1958: You know his name. Everyone does-and no one. As the new shadow of nuclear armageddon hangs over the world, Malcolm Wilkins-formerly codenamed "The Showstopper" and the world's deadliest spy-is quite content to drink himself to death in self-imposed exile on a backwater island. But over two decades after his father's sacrifice, an encounter with an ambitious IRS agent sends him into a tailspin as he's plunged back into the life he's tried so hard to escape.
As specters from the past return to menace the present and a devious plot reveals itself, Malcolm must call upon all his skills to face enemies old and new, as well as allies he's not sure he can trust. Because once again, the last of the Wilkins family is all that stands against the unthinkable-the unraveling of the international order and the unleashing of a terrorist superpower.
It's time for Malcolm to stop running, face his complicated legacy, and make a stand...even if it means losing everything.
The final chapter of the Showstopper series, beginning with "The Showstopper" and continuing with "The Showstopper Returns"!

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)Complete
