What if you could correct your past mistakes?

Alex Peak is a normal high school student who messes up big time. When he's taken to the police station, he suddenly blacks out in a cell. Strangely enough, he comes to in his kitchen at the exact time he blacked out. And he hasn't been to the police station that day.

As Alex finds out about his new power with the help of his friend Ben, he sees an opportunity to change the world for the better. But nothing, not even science-bending abilities, can prepare him for what happens next.

Embark on a science fiction novel all-too-real as Alex fights petty crime, the laws of physics, and destiny in an action-packed story that contains surprises at every corner. Being a Shifter can be useful sometimes, but some situations can lead to a dead end...

A novelette of approximately 9,500 words, Shifter is the first in a series.
