The Missing Hour

At 3:00 a.m., Tom Ellison wakes in his kitchen holding a knife. There is blood on his clothes. Mud on his feet. A fresh cut beneath his ear. And he has absolutely no idea what happened during the previous hour. He isn't alone. Across Britain, millions of people have lost exactly the same sixty minutes. Then the evidence begins to appear. Photographs nobody remembers taking. Messages written in familiar handwriting. People who remember lives that never happened. Twenty-seven missing strangers. And a warning Tom cannot explain: DON'T LET THEM. As the missing hour begins to expose fractures in reality, Tom discovers that his family is at the centre of something far older—and far more dangerous—than a simple gap in memory. Somewhere, his wife is dead. Somewhere, she survived. Somewhere, Tom has a son he has never met. And somewhere in 2049, humanity is waiting for him to understand why. Every attempt to uncover the truth changes the truth itself. Every answer creates another history. And behind them all lies the possibility that the greatest threat to humanity isn't another civilisation. It's a universe in which every version of reality is forced to agree. From Morrow, author of 22:22, comes a mind-bending science-fiction thriller about memory, family, impossible choices and the terrifying consequences of knowing what happens tomorrow. The future can warn you. The past can remember you. But some moments should never exist.
