Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

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

Jen witnessed her 18 year old son murdering a man. This leads her to time lapse further and further into the past to unravel the mystery of why this happened and can she protect her son . There are lots of plot twists along the way. Wonderful story telling. I really enjoyed it.
Narration suits the story.

I really enjoyed this book. Loved the storyline and didn’t see the twists coming which is unusual. Just took a while to get used to the narrator.
