Showing results for "the clocks" in Mystery, Thriller & Suspense

As one friend fights for her life—the knowledge she holds silenced unless she wakes—others race to expose a sordid money-making scheme before it claims more victims. But the search for answers is entwined with complications. Elle must navigate the pitfalls of high society, a toxic new living arrangement, and the balancing act of chasing love in a world where wealth dictates worth—while Raven's relationship with Logan is tested by newly imposed rules. But the real blow may be a shocking family secret nobody saw coming.

Some clocks tick forward. This one remembers backward. Fourteen-year-old Eli Grant doesn’t believe in haunted clocks or secret auctions. He just wants to survive another shift at his family’s fading antique business without getting yelled at by his sister or disappointing his grandfather again. But when a strange children’s clock—Lot 27—is sold to a bidder who doesn’t blink, time starts pulling him sideways. Eli’s sketches change on their own. Time ticks in reverse. And the spirals in his drawings don’t feel like art—they feel like memories trying to escape. Then he finds the invitation.
