The complete “A Rip in Time” saga.

In Part 1, P.I. Jack Hammer’s world fractures. A glitch in the system and a message from the mysterious “Controller” reveal his entire life is a construct, and the memories he’s built are just code.

In Part 2, Jack is granted the ultimate prize: the perfect, stolen life with his lost love Angela and his daughter Jackie Angel. But this paradise is violently ripped away, throwing him back into his grim office. Before he can earn a second chance at that life, he has one last debt to pay. “Blood and loyalty” demand he stay in the muck to hunt down Dutch Racini, the man who murdered his Uncle Frank. Jack’s path of vengeance teaches him a fatal lesson—one that might just be the key to winning back everything he’s lost.
