A twist-filled mystery thriller set in a near-future Seattle.
Scottie, a rocky year into adulthood, is skidding toward the bottom spot on New Seattle’s popularity sorting — the People List. When a brand finally comes her way, it’s a calamitous one: Scottie is blamed for the death of the longtime #1, a charismatic stage actress named Delilah.
Scottie is convinced someone murdered Delilah. She’ll have to prove it alone, her only confidante her AI chip, Cece. The clock is ticking. The People List will update in a week and last place brings a one-way trip into the frozen wasteland outside the town gates.
The sensible move: work on her brand. The risky move: pursue a killer.
“Neve Maslakovic’s story is a standout… Scottie’s journey reaches into the reader’s heart” — D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

Thanks to the time travel lab at St. Sunniva University, history is no longer a mystery. But when the beloved co-inventor of the university’s time machine is inexplicably smeared across time, academic exploration and the future of St. Sunniva is thrown into doubt.
As assistant to the dean of science, Julia Olsen is tasked with helping Campus Security Chief Nate Kirkland quietly examine this rare mishap…then, just as quietly, make it go away. When the investigation indicates that the professor’s disappearance may have been a murder, those inspecting the incident unwittingly find themselves caught in a deadly cover-up — one in which history itself is the weapon.

On a foggy Monday in 1986, the universe suddenly, without warning, bifurcated. Fast-forward to 35 years later: Felix Sayers is a culinary writer living in San Francisco of Universe A who spends his days lunching at Coconut Café and dreaming of penning an Agatha Christie-style mystery. But everything changes when his Aunt Henrietta dies, leaving Felix a photograph which proves that he was born before the bifurcation. He has an ‘alter’ in Universe B.
Panicked that his mystery novel may have been penned already by his alter, Felix crosses to San Francisco B and proceeds to flagrantly violate the rules of both worlds by snooping around his alter’s life. But when he narrowly escapes a hit-and-run, it becomes clear that someone knows he’s crossed over… and whoever it is isn’t happy about it. Now Felix must uncover the truth about his alter, the events of one Monday, and a wayward rubber duck before his time in both worlds runs out.
