About this listen
The space crew that made the historic flight to Saturnʼs moon were hailed as heroes—until they discovered a terrifying truth: The Earth that they returned to was the wrong one. Before they can reveal that theyʼre from a parallel world, the power-hungry billionaire who orchestrated the entire mission brands the group as traitors, forcing them to flee in order to survive.
Two members of their group are immediately captured, leaving the rest of the crew off balance and scrambling for a new plan. They quickly realize that their problems transcend this terrifying nationwide manhunt, however, when unexplained and catastrophic phenomena begin to occur all over the globe.
Now on the run and unsure where to turn or whom to trust, the crew can only rely on one another to find their way home—and to save not just one world, but two.
Critic Reviews
Praise for the Detour series
“If The Martian and The Twilight Zone had a baby, it would be Detour—a thriller that messes with your head as you scramble to piece together what’s really going on. Jeff Rake and Rob Hart have crafted an engaging and wonderfully puzzling first novel in a new series that sci-fi and psychological thriller fans will find intriguing and thought-provoking.”—Steve Netter, Best Thriller Books
“Dives into Andy Weir and Rod Serling territory, making this a blast from the first page to the last . . . I’m a fan of Rob Hart’s novels and Jeff Rake’s television series Manifest, and Detour exceeded my already-high expectations.”—firstCLUE
“Propulsive and exciting from the very first page, Jeff Rake and Rob Hart’s Detour is a thrilling ride that is as timely as it is compelling!”—Jake Tapper, CNN anchor and New York Times bestselling author of The Hellfire Club
“A clever page-turner about opportunities, mistakes, and the alluring pull of going out there, Detour reads like the start of a very bingeable sci-fi series.”—Peter Clines, New York Times bestselling author of The Broken Room
“A fast-paced, cinematic space thriller with sympathetic characters that absolutely leap off the page and demand attention, Detour will leave you breathless, anxious, and questioning everything you know.”—Delilah S. Dawson, New York Times bestselling author of The Violence
