Elliot never expected to witness the impossible. When he sees a crime scene unfolding in reverse—blood retreating, wounds healing, bullets flying back into the barrel—he realizes time itself is out of order. A man who should have been dead is alive, and a murder that already happened is un-happening before his eyes.
In a world where cause and effect no longer follow the rules, Elliot is faced with a mystery unlike any other. Clues appear instead of disappear, suspects move toward the crime instead of away, and the deeper he digs, the more reality seems to rewrite itself. To solve this case, he must think backward—because in this world, the past is the future, and the future is the past.
But time is unraveling fast, and if Elliot doesn't put the pieces together before they come undone, he might be trapped in an endless loop where nothing is ever truly solved. With each step, he questions not just who committed the crime, but why time itself is trying to erase it.
As the truth comes into focus, Elliot must make an impossible choice: fix time's mistake and risk breaking reality even further, or let the crime play out as it was meant to. And what if stopping a murder means ensuring it happens?
Full of twists, paradoxes, and suspense, Mystery in Reverse is a mind-bending adventure where nothing happens the way you expect. Perfect for readers who love puzzles, unexpected turns, and mysteries that make you think long after the last page.
