January Cole is head of security at a hotel that specializes in time travel for its guests! If that doesn't grab your attention, move on. But if you enjoy time travel stories like I do, you're in for a treat because this is a time travel mystery with heroes and villains and a few unexplained murders along the way. It's not violent, it's more a who dunnit tale but with weirdness all around. Highly enjoyable.

With all AG Riddle's books, they are connected to each other, sometimes in a very subtle way. This was a standalone book from his typical trilogies. It was both immersive and entertaining with a likeable and down to earth main character, who is put in a impossible situation and adapts and fights back.
