"Possibly the best ending to a book I have ever read" Our Book Reviews Online
If you enjoyed the time-travel element of Stephen King's 11.22.63, then you may well enjoy this - in 11.22.63, time-travel is important, but the characters are more so - the same applies to The Long Second.
(If you're worried that time-travel means hardcore Science-Fiction, King proves otherwise and The Long Second agrees!)
Fraud, betrayal, drugs, love. Time-travel.
That's a lot for Tony Cole to deal with.
If you could travel back in time, you'd win the lottery, right? If only it were that easy. Even time-travel has to obey some rules, but as nobody seems to have written them down, Tony is going to have to work them out for himself. And he doesn't always get it right.
On the surface of it, his family is perfect, but scratch away the glossy coating and you'll find a family on the edge of disaster. Tony can try to fix all this, but every time he plasters over one hole, he uncovers another. Faced with his brother's betrayal he has to decide whether his life is worth saving, but even one death can have far-reaching consequences.
A thriller in the mould of Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas which will keep you guessing right to the last page.
