Bookseller recommendation
“I'm very particular when it comes to choosing audiobooks. The story has to grab me from the start and the narrator has to have the 'right' voice for the story. Harper Collins, Gillian McAllister, and Lesley Sharp (narrator) hit it out of the part with this book. This listening experience is a rare treat! The story is a fast paced, compelling tale of a mother who witnesses her teenage son stabbing someone... she experiences the police, the trauma of not being able to help him, and a terrible sense that nothing will ever be the same. However, after leaving her son with the police, she goes home and has a fitful night of sleep. When she wakes up, she finds her son coming out of his room... It's the previous day...and then it's the day before that. Can she change the course of her son's future? This will, no doubt, go down as one of my best reads of the year. ”

“Wow. Wrong Place Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister had me on the edge of my seat. Mystery, suspense, science fiction are all rolled into one gripping page turner. I love stories that include time loops and parallel lives, and the possibilities of changing the course of history. Can Jen go back far enough in time to prevent her son from committing a crime, and at what cost to her family? The clues she digs up as she travels backward are twists that leave you, and Jen, guessing until the end. A perfect summer read for thriller fans!”

“I went into this totally blind, and boy am I glad I did because of I had read a blurb I may never have started it. As it turns out I was hooked from the beginning when Jen witnesses her teen aged son commit a murder outside their house, so once I realized what was happening in the story it was way too late to stop listening. This is a thriller unlike anything I have ever read. I am still amazed at how it was plotted and told in such an ingenious manner.”

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK
“It’s perfection, every word, every moment. A masterpiece . . . One of the best books I’ve ever read.” —Lisa Jewell, #1 New York Times bestselling author
New York Times bestselling author Gillian McAllister has created a thriller unlike any other in this endlessly clever, twisty story of a mother who must move backward through time to prevent tragedy from striking at the heart of her family.
Can you stop a murder after it’s already happened?
It is midnight on the morning of Halloween, and Jen anxiously waits up for her 18-year-old son, Todd, to return home. But worries about his broken curfew transform into something much more dangerous when Todd finally emerges from the darkness. As Jen watches through the window, she sees her funny, seemingly happy teenage son stab a total stranger.
She doesn’t know who the victim is, or why Todd has committed such a devastating act of violence. All she knows is that her life, and Todd’s, have been shattered.
After her son is taken into custody, Jen falls asleep in despair. But when she wakes up…it is yesterday. The murder has not happened yet—and there may be a chance to stop it. Each morning, when Jen wakes, she is further back in the past, first weeks, then years, before the murder. And Jen realizes that somewhere in the past lies the trigger for Todd’s terrible crime…and it is her mission to find it, and prevent it from taking place.
Both the story of a mother’s love and the sacrifices she will make for her child, and a thriller with a brilliant twist, Wrong Place Wrong Time is a one-of-a-kind novel that begs to be read in one sitting.
Gillian McAllister is the New York Times bestselling author of Reese's Book Club Pick Wrong Place Wrong Time, Just Another Missing Person, Everything but the Truth, The Choice, The Good Sister, The Evidence Against You, How to Disappear, and the Richard & Judy Book Club pick That Night.
