Synopsis

From award-winning author R. Jean Mathieu comes No Time: The First Hour. Time-active detective Gabriel "Gooch" Caballero y Gutiérrez is woken from his bed on Good Friday and shown his dead body on the beach on Easter Sunday. It's a delicate dance: if Gooch can find out just enough, he might be able to escape the executioner's axe. If he knows too much, he's trapped in time. Now, Gooch has to juggle domestic troubles, an amnesiac time traveler, and shadows of his past as he tries to find out who kills him, and why.
