“It's a time travel story, it's a police procedural story, it's the beginning of two strong friendships and probably a highly addictive series. Armstrong's devotees will be thrilled to watch this intelligent author pulling apart our assumptions about middle-class Victorian society (with a running gag involving how modern phrases sound to very early forensic scientists), and fans of Laurie King's Mary Russell books will be excited to discover a new, strong female lead with razor logic and winning honesty. There are some familiar tropes, and the first couple of chapters, while sympathetic, don't seem to offer anything really new...but hold on. The coffee is just percolating. The twists to come are worthy of an Old Town Edinburgh setting!”

In this series debut from New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong, a modern-day homicide detective finds herself in Victorian Scotland—in an unfamiliar body—with a killer on the loose.
"A great read." —Charlaine Harris
May 20, 2019: Homicide detective Mallory is in Edinburgh to be with her dying grandmother. While out on a jog one evening, Mallory hears a woman in distress. She’s drawn to an alley, where she is attacked and loses consciousness.
May 20, 1869: Housemaid Catriona Thomson had been enjoying a half-day off, only to be discovered that night in a lane, where she’d been strangled and left for dead . . . exactly one-hundred-and-fifty years before Mallory was strangled in the same spot.
When Mallory wakes up in Catriona's body in 1869, she must put aside her shock and adjust quickly to the reality: life as a housemaid to an undertaker in Victorian Scotland. She soon discovers that her boss, Dr. Gray, also moonlights as a medical examiner and has just taken on an intriguing case, the strangulation of a young man, similar to the attack on herself. Her only hope is that catching the murderer can lead her back to her modern life . . . before it's too late.
In A Rip Through Time, New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong introduces a brand-new series mixing mystery, romance, and fantasy with thrilling results.
