The plot summary is as follows:
Secret Service agent Rebecca Carter’s world is upended when her husband goes missing in 2002. Two years later, Rebecca and her team are protecting the President during a high-stakes trade deal in China. But their mission is cut short when an assassin appears out of nowhere, kills everyone, and disappears, leaving Rebecca as the lone survivor. In the year 31,462, Xel-Na, a shifter (an individual who can move through time and space at will), receives no word from Thes-Omatz, the deep space research vessel carrying his wife and daughter. Upon launching probes to investigate, he finds everyone either dead or missing. Suspecting a fellow shifter, Xel-Na embarks on a mission to confront the perpetrator. In his quest he soon comes across Rebecca. Together, they face insurmountable odds, all while grappling with the weight of their personal losses. But as they delve deeper into the heart of the conspiracy, they discover that the murderous shifter isn’t just after Rebecca, he’s after power. And no matter what Xel-Na and Rebecca do, this cunning adversary is always one step ahead of them.
I finished the first draft of the novel, but being out of work I’m not able to fund it myself. I was kinda like, well, nobody’s giving me a call, might as well write it.
Would love to hear your thoughts. Do you like it? I have a thick skin, so even if it’s crap, go ahead and let a rip.
And before you ask, no, it was not written by AI 😆 (though I did use AI to assist in editing).
If you’d like to fund publication, I would greatly appreciate it. Or if you like and and don’t like to give strangers money online, I’d be forever grateful if you share the post on social media.
