Publisher's summary

He only looked away for a second.

Still haunted by the disappearance of his little sister, Amy, over 20 years ago, Joseph Bridgeman’s life has fallen apart. When a friend talks him into seeing hypnotherapist Alexia Finch to help with his insomnia, Joseph accidentally discovers he can time travel. His first trip only takes him back a few minutes, but his new-found ability gives him something he hasn’t felt for the longest time: hope.

Joseph sets out to travel back to the night Amy went missing and save her. But after several failed attempts, he discovers the farther back he travels, the less time he gets to stay there. And the clock is ticking.

With the help of Alexia, Joseph embarks on a desperate race against the past to save his sister. Can he master his new skill and solve the mystery of Amy’s disappearance before it’s too late?

Previously released as The Unexpected Gift of Joseph Bridgeman, this updated version includes extra chapters, new plotlines, and even deeper character development. It makes way for an expanded vision of the Joseph Bridgeman Series, with the first four books released in 2021 and 2022.

Excellent Story

Kept me guessing the whole way through. Too bad no one in Hollywood can read. Would make a great movie.

Some interesting twists and turns

Really enjoyed this and the idea of going back for one specific reason. My only wish is that a few more of the questions were answered at the end that any time-traveling aficionado would want answers too. Hoping book 2 has some of that covered.

I hear Tom Hanks!

The accent choices are weird for the main character and his family, generally American with some variations in the second book, especially. Nevertheless, I am thoroughly enjoying the reader, suspending disbelief all around for whatever reason he's doing those accents. But once I realized his main character sounds a lot like Tom Hanks, that has stuck in my mind, haha! I am loving this story and the second book, too. Poignancy and humor, mystery and wonder, and so many voices done well (again, not focusing on accents, but hearing him use different tones for men that sound authentic in their own right.) I hope you'll give this a chance.

Are you British?

I enjoyed this story and the narrator was actually really good- except he was obviously American and the character was British! It was annoying to hear a yank saying things that were obviously British …. I found it distracting :/ otherwise the story was great and I enjoyed it.

A real pleasure

This novel is an absolute delight. I so enjoyed the romp in time travel. Excellent characterization. Excellent story. The narrator, Ray Porter, was superb. I will be looking out for more of his narrations. And I will be reading more of Nick Jones. Bravo Mr. Jones! You have made this reader very happy.

Reminds me of a classic

Great story, tight plotting, and seamlessly combines levity and lightheartedness w/ introspection and thrills…. I was continually reminded of Jack Finney’s Time and Again, in the bestest of ways, as I read…. The author made the idea/s his own, but was no doubt influenced by that masterpiece…. Already started the second book in series, and looking forward to release of third….

This is very good. Book 2 is better

I listened to book one and two in reverse order. This is a good book and I was intrigued and full of suspense even though I knew how it ended. I recommend (both).

Surprisingly good!

I almost didn’t read it based on the negative reviews. I am happy to report that I didn’t listen to them and I am very satisfied with the time invested in listening to this book!
