Inhaltsangabe

One of the classic paradoxes of time travel is the question of what happens if you go back in time and kill your own grandfather. But what about the case where you travel back and prevent your grandfather from being killed? This is the puzzle that private detective Harry Christian inadvertently finds himself confronted with when a client asks him to do just that. Not only must the detective face the consequences of his own actions— with time unraveling, he also becomes involved in a struggle to restore the fabric of time itself.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

A Wisconsin native, Greg Fowlkes received his master's degree in physics from the University of Wisconsin. Since graduation, he has had a career developing telecommunications software. A lifelong reader of science fiction and fantasy, he began writing while still in graduate school, though it would be several decades until his first work, The Fictional Detective, was published. This was soon followed by the collection of novellas, The Laws of Magic, and the novel The Blood Red Sands of Mars. His work explores the conjunction of science fiction, fantasy, and the hard-boiled detective stories. His series includes the Murder on Mars novels, which focus on a law enforcement team on a Martian colony in the not-too-distant future; the Wizard at Law stories, which deal with a lawyer with an unusual set of clients; and The Fictional Detective stories and novel about a hard-boiled detective with existential issues. His latest series, the Star City Stories, features a private detective whose beat is a hollowed out asteroid orbiting a brown dwarf, and takes place some thousand years in the future. He was also published a more or less conventional detective novel, The Uncorrupted Corpse. In his spare time, what there is of it, Greg Fowlkes plays guitar and mandolin, makes furniture, and takes his two Shiba Inus, Toshiro and Yojimbo, for long walks.
