A propulsive and thrilling chase through the multiverse as a washed-up writer joins an elite crew of scouts on a mission to stop terrorists destroying entire realities. Perfect for fans of character-driven multiverse adventures such as The Space Between Worlds by Micaiah Johnson, and The Long Earth series by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter Tim begins to slide into parallel worlds every three days, at first dismissing the surreal but subtle changes around him as stress until he first wakes up with a family he never had, and then three days later wakes up on an abandoned planet. He soon meets Fred, a traumatised Ryder who travels between worlds to protect Luminaries—a lineage of women critical to humanity's future. They're joined by Zhue, a warrior sent back from 5,000 years in the future, whose transition from male to female reflects her own complex inner journey – to stop the murder of Luminaries on World #20, a crisis that will ultimately erase that world from existence. Believing the culprit to be John Cho, the man responsible for the destruction of Fred's crew, the trio pursue him across worlds and eras, having been tasked by Union Arcade, the organisation overseeing Ryder missions. Despite their efforts, they become the hunted and grow desperate, until Tim realises Cho isn't their true enemy; instead, he has been tracking, and often saving them, to catch the real killer—Fred's former best friend and a high-ranking operative within Union Arcade itself. Forced to ally with Cho, they finally confront and stop the real killer.
