CAN YOU STOP A MURDER WHEN IT'S ALREADY HAPPENED?

THE BOOK EVERYONE HAS BEEN TALKING ABOUT

It's every parent's nightmare.

Your happy, funny, innocent son commits a terrible crime: murdering a complete stranger.

You don't know who. You don't know why. You only know your teenage boy is in custody and his future lost.

That night you fall asleep in despair. Until you wake . . .

. . . and it is yesterday.

Every morning you wake up a day earlier, another day before the murder. Another chance to stop it.

Somewhere in the past lie the answers, and you don't have a choice but to find them . . .

Critic Reviews

A spellbinding "whydunnit" . . . A novel with a difference. Richly layered, it makes other psychological thrillers seem thin and unimaginative
It's perfection, every word, every moment. A masterpiece . . . I had my mind blown apart. After I finished it I sat with my mouth hanging open in awe. One of the best books I've ever read (Lisa Jewell)
WOW 5 STARS! I can't get over how clever this book was. (FREIDA MCFADDEN)
Skilful, satisfying. McAllister handles her Liverpool-set twist on Russian Doll and Groundhog Day with great skill. Tightly plotted . . . Don't miss it
A mind-bending page-turning thriller. Non-stop thrills right from the start. A rare gem (Steve Wright)
Wow. Amazing! Loved every page . . . If you are looking for a summer read, I've found it! (Holly Willoughby)
Another ingeniously plotted genre-bender . . . McAllister succeeds in making us care, and the result is a tour de force
Extraordinary (Harriet Tyce)
Wrong Place Wrong Time is a masterfully plotted and ingenious psychological thriller told in reverse. Gripping and full of surprises, it's one of the best books I've read this year
It's absolutely AMAZING. The plot is astonishing - original and ingenious (Marian Keyes)
All stars

A really enjoyable story that made me reflect on where I spend my time, with who and what I pay attention to. Also a reminder of past and what I am grateful for today.

Of course I’m writing this on the train, headphones in and head down in my phone.

Enjoyable read

This was my first time traveller style book, and I must say I'm thoroughly impressed with how well it is written. The story has unexpected twists and a fantastic, tie-it-all together ending. The narrator was easy to listen to and the audio was clear.
