Detective Elise Monroe, a seasoned homicide investigator with the Toronto Police Service, is chasing a serial killer known as The Repeater-a sadistic murderer who re-enacts historical crimes with eerie precision.
But when Elise stumbles upon a mysterious artifact at a crime scene-a pocket watch with an impossible engraving-she is thrown into a deadly game that spans decades.
With each turn of the watch's dial, Elise is pulled into a different era of Toronto's history, from the Great Fire of 1904 to the 1977 Café Massacre. She soon realizes that The Repeater is not just copying history-he's part of it.
Someone or something is enabling him to kill across time.
As Elise fights to track him down in the past and the present, she discovers a network of time travelers-some who seek justice and others who manipulate history for their gain. The deeper she goes, the more she questions her past, including the mysterious disappearance of her father, an investigative journalist who vanished in 1992 while chasing a story about an unsolved murder.
The clock is ticking, and if Elise can't stop The Repeater, history will be rewritten in blood.

The Ravenswood Reckoning
The town of Ravenswood has always had its secrets-whispers of disappearances, strange rituals, and a curse that binds the land in darkness. At the heart of it stands Ravenswood Estate, a decaying monument to a family whose legacy is written in blood. When Elias Ravenswood IV is found murdered in his own home-his body posed in a grotesque ritual, his lips sewn shut with golden thread-Detective Celeste Marlowe is called to unravel the mystery. A seasoned investigator with ghosts of her own, Celeste knows that some cases never truly end. As she steps into the shadowed halls of the Ravenswood Estate, she feels it instantly: this house is not just a crime scene. It's alive. And it's waiting. The deeper she digs, the more the walls seem to close in. The townspeople speak of a family curse, of a reckoning long overdue. The suspects-each with their own secrets-drip with guilt, but something far worse lurks beneath the surface. The clues don't just point to Elias's death; they lead Celeste back to a night long buried in her own past, a night she has no memory of... but one that has never forgotten her. As the bodies start to pile up, Celeste realizes she isn't just hunting a killer-she is part of the story, a thread in a tapestry of death woven long before she was born. Someone has been waiting for her to return. And they won't let her leave. In Ravenswood, the past never dies. It waits.Lengkap

The Ordinary Hour
Matsuda Kenji was an ordinary man. At least, that's what the world saw. A slightly overweight, glasses-wearing convenience store owner, he spent his days restocking shelves, chatting with regulars, and preparing bento boxes for his nine-year-old daughter, Hana.

A decade ago, Kenji was known by a different name: Timekeeper, the deadliest operative of Hourglass, a clandestine organization that manipulated global events from the shadows. His missions were executed with mechanical precision-every target eliminated within exactly one hour. No more. No less. Then he vanished, leaving behind a world of bloodshed to build something real: a family, a life free of violence.

Kenji knows what this means. They will come for it. They will come for the boy. And if they learn who he really is... They will come for him, too. For ten years, he has pretended to be ordinary. But there are no ordinary hours left. Because when the clock starts ticking, Timekeeper does not miss.
