The 13th Hour

I don’t usually like time travel books but this was great! The fact that is written in reverse was worrisome but the only way it could be done. Edge of your seat, makes you think thriller!!

Kind of a neat idea...a thriller in reverse. This was a fun read and I recommend it.

This was a great find, my first time reading this author, but I was captivated from the first moment on. Not predictable at all, this thriller is sure to please a wide audience of readers. Highly recommended!

It took me a little while to get used to traveling backwards in time but once I became acclimated, I was on the edge of my seat for each 60 minute segment. I felt the story was very innovative - combining a small bit of science fiction with a whole lot of suspense. The author was very adept at giving you a piece or pieces of the puzzle during each hour - only to have to regroup during the next hour. Also what started as just an attempt to save his wife transpired into a more complex scenario, keeping the reader going at a fast pace. I read this book in one sitting. I thoroughly enjoyed The 13th Hour and highly recommend it

I strive on finding the best of the best thrillers/mysteries out there...It takes a lot for me to be so engaged I read the book for hours. This book was one of those books. Especially the last 3 chapters....I love books that read like a movie that I can very easily picture going on in my head. I love books that have twists and turns that I dont see coming and a few that I do. I enjoy thrillers with a love story in there somehow and a good character development! I think this book HAD IT ALL. I loved the way this story was set up...I JUST finished reading this story and I think Ill have to read it again to fully understand everything that happened in the 12 hours..the story was SO unique and I was excited to get so into the story!! I hope to find more thrillers this unique out there but there are not many!! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!

When Nick Quinn is held for questioning at the police station, it seems the police are convinced that Nick killed his own wife. Someone has framed Nick for her murder. But then, a stranger arrives with a bizarre opportunity for Nick. The stranger gives Nick 12 hours to save his wife and prevent her death. Each hour he will travel back in time to the previous hour in hopes of unraveling the plot around her death. But everything he does in the past, will affect the future, for better or worse. The plot seems a bit confusing at first. I thought it might be hard to read. Instead, we live hour-by-hour with Nick and experience his race to uncover clues to his wife's murderer. Nick makes occasional mistakes that have serious repercussions. But each hour, he is able to learn from the previous one and try to stop events from happening in the past. Not only is the plot and design unique, but the story is incredibly fast-paced and impossible to put down. The suspense is intense, caught up in drama and fantastic characters. There are twists and turns in each hour that unfolds, leading to a surprising climax. This is a must for mystery and science fiction fans alike. But simply put, I loved this book and would recommend it to anyone.
