About this listen

Five Seconds Too Late is a gripping speculative thriller that blends emotional intensity with a high-concept premise—where time isn't just the enemy, it's the witness.

Three strangers are drawn into a series of uncontrolled time jumps—each landing them seconds before some of history’s darkest moments. As they fight to understand the machine dragging them through time, they’re forced to question whether they’re observers, pawns… or something else entirely.

"Tense, original, and emotionally explosive, Five Seconds Too Late is a time-travel thriller that grabs you from page one and never lets go—perfect for fans of dark sci-fi who crave suspense, soul, and the chilling question of what happens when you’re too late to change history." – NewInBooks.com

“Impossible to put down—one of the most unique time travel stories I’ve ever read.”
“Smart, haunting, and deeply human.”
“A masterclass in suspense and slow-burning revelation.”
“You don’t read this book—you survive it.”

With vivid detail, sharp dialogue, and a relentless pace, Five Seconds Too Late asks the one question no time travel story dares to answer: what if you can't stop it?

Perfect for fans of:
Time-bending thrillers, dark science fiction, dystopian mystery, and emotionally charged speculative fiction.
