We Shouldn’t Be Here
Two mysterious travellers crash-land in the early 20th century, catapulted 336 years into the past by a quantum explosion. But these are no ordinary time travellers – they come from a dystopian future where the very essence of humanity has warped and twisted beyond recognition.
Their arrival triggers a chain of shocking events, starting with the brutal murders of four policemen. As the body count rises, the indomitable Detective Inspector Hadleigh and his loyal driver Betts find themselves plunged into a labyrinth of clues and corpses, each more perplexing than the last.
But nothing can prepare them for the shattering truth they uncover: a sinister cult operating in the shadows, with motives as unexpected and dark as the future the unwitting travellers left.
