Caught In The Act

It’s time for the Inklet of the week!! (And don’t forget the Kickstarter for all the Inklets is still running!)

Today, however, is official birthday of Caught In The Act, a lil sci fi heist story that I wrote for a course a year or so ago. I thought, when I started writing this, that it would be about stealing time and therefore time travel or some such. BUT NO. Instead, pinging off an article I’d read recently about gene drives, it became… this.

Thanks to Lifetime Clinic’s time capsule serum, anyone can now live forever—for the low, low price of two million dollars annually.

A trio of enterprising thieves attempt to steal one of the capsules… And the sound tech responsible for processing the evidence makes a discovery that calls everyone’s motives into question. Even Lifetime’s.

Because this information? Literally life-changing. Or ending. For everyone. Especially the sound tech, if they let it fall into the wrong hands… 

A twisty sci fi heist that will keep you guessing until the very end, don’t miss Caught In The Act from Aurealis-winning author Amy Laurens!

Grab your copy direct above, or else from your favourite retailer in print or ebook 🙂 Enjoy!
