Perfect for you if...

  • You love high-stakes action with family dynamics at the core, where personal relationships matter as much as the survival stakes.
  • You enjoyed Jurassic Park but wanted faster pacing and more conspiracies layered into the dinosaur adventure.
  • You're after pure escapism: a book that grabs you on page one and doesn't let go until the last chapter.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer slow-burn character studies or literary introspection over plot-driven thrills.
  • You want hard science fiction with rigorous time travel mechanics explained in detail.
  • You're looking for a standalone novel; this is book one of a series and ends with threads left hanging.

About this book

Hudson takes his son to the Meat Co. time base for his ninth birthday, planning an unauthorized trip back to the Cretaceous period. Their sneaky adventure becomes complicated when rival firms, desperate to steal the time travel technology, send their own team back in time. When that mission goes wrong, Hudson and his son find themselves stranded in the past, fighting for survival with no one aware of their location. Their unexpected presence in the Cretaceous has unforeseen consequences for the future. The inventor behind the time portal technology has been concealing secrets far more dangerous than anyone realized. As Hudson and his son race to escape the prehistoric era, they discover that the carnivores hunting them may pose less threat than the hidden truths waiting in their own time.
