⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Captivating, riveting and original story!
A Rip Through Time is a time travel mystery & thriller that from almost the first pages I found myself completely sucked into and couldn’t put down. I tend towards mysteries with a stronger romantic element in them, but this story was so good and captivating that I didn’t mind that there really wasn’t much of one here to be found. The story opens when Mallory, visiting Edinburgh to be by her nana’s side during her last hours, is almost strangled in an alley while out on a run one evening and next finds herself waking in the body of a young woman 150 years before. Thus begins this story as Mallory, in the body of the young Catriona, must work to unravel who she is in this time period, how she got here, and how to get back home.
This is the first in a new series, and in many ways can be read as a standalone. There are two mysteries taking place to unravel – what happened to Catriona in her time, and getting Mallory back to her original time. One of these is solved within this book, but the other is not which is what I’m sure leads to future books. It’s been a while since I’ve read any time travel books, but I absolutely loved the way it was handled here by Kelley Armstrong. You get attention to details that are usually ignored and it made for some compelling and riveting reading. I can’t wait now for the next in the series!
Kelley Armstrong believes experience is the best teacher, though she’s been told this shouldn’t apply to writing her murder scenes. To craft her books, she has studied aikido, archery and fencing. She sucks at all of them. She has also crawled through very shallow cave systems and climbed half a mountain before chickening out. She is however an expert coffee drinker and a true connoisseur of chocolate-chip cookies.
