YOU CAN'T OUTRUN THE PAST
Slowly, Mason rebuilds his life. Then without warning, the stranger vanishes. Years later, Mason discovers the impossible: a doorway into the past. With the help of his long-term friend, Alex, he begins travelling back in time to rescue children from the edge of irreversible despair, becoming a pioneer of a dangerous new kind of salvation.
But when one of those rescues ends in murder, everything unravels.
Now Mason must confront fate, choice, and consequence. How much of history can be changed, and at what cost? And after decades of searching, one question remains:
What became of the man who once saved him?
Ashes Through the Hourglass is a psychological thriller blending dark humour with grief, memory, second chances, and the fragility of human existence.

Early praise for Ashes Through the Hourglass:
"Do you ever wish you could go back and fix it? This wonderful book shows the care (and the cost) of such an endeavour. Marvellously human and funny as hell." - Ray Porter, Audie Award Winner for Project Hail Mary
"Unprepared for just how good it is" - Robin Price
""Tremendous. The time travel is brilliantly handled and the banter between the characters is an absolute joy. I didn't want it to end." - Kelly Miller
"The time travel is handled with real skill; detailed but never baffling. An exceptional read." - Louise Fisher
"I binge read it in a matter of hours — that tells you everything. I was initially worried when the time travel began as it's not my usual genre, but the fact it was being used to prevent children from making the worst decisions of their lives kept me completely hooked." - Laura Drumgoogle
