Half Past Monday M Erpenbeck

After marrying his med school sweetheart, Dr. Dominic Rivera thought his life was perfect. But his wife, Clarissa, has dark secrets, and the consequences of her past trauma have been buried all these years. When current events push her over the edge, the confident doctor's life completely falls apart.



Dominic would do anything to change what happened. His only chance lies in an old inventor friend's scribbles, stored away in a forgotten attic. This tool will let him change his wife's history-but at what cost? Even though he only has time to alter one moment, the repercussions follow him back to the present. He saves his wife, unknowingly at the expense of others.



A single day can alter who a person becomes. When a young boy sees his mother killed, his own path turns dark. Back in the present, Dominic is thrilled when everything seems to be right again. He gradually notices small differences, ones that are seemingly unconnected. But when his daughter is kidnapped, Dominic realizes the gravity of what he has done. Lost among the dusty roads of a ghost town, he must prove himself innocent and find his little girl-before it's too late.
