Time's Relative
It's the fall of 1998, and librarian Samantha Stewart is looking for a new job. After seeing an ad for a high-paying position at a company called Virtual Software that entails research and travel, Sam investigates the company and learns that its president has gone missing, and that it's currently being run by the vice-president Greg Parsons. Before Sam makes it to the interview, she's visited by a strange woman who introduces herself as Jane a time traveler whose mission Greg Parsons is trying to prevent. Sam ignores the woman and goes on the job interview anyway. Soon, she finds herself involved not only with Greg Parsons, but also Philip Montmart, a chain-smoking detective with a vendetta for his wife's killer, and the time-traveling Oldsfield and her feline accomplice. Witnessing world events that have yet to happen in her lifetime, including 9/11, Hurricane Sandy, Y2K hysteria and the COVID pandemic, can Samantha figure out Oldsfield's plans? This is the large print edition of Time's Relative, with a larger font / typeface for easier reading.

If there's anything I love more than telling a great story, it's reading one. I couldn't put this down. DeLouise's characters engaged and intrigued me set against the backdrop of time. Is it all an illusionand we mortals mere toys to be buffeted about at the whims of the past/present/future space-time continuum?

If the future is today, what happened to the past?
Samantha Stewart sees a job advertised in the job ads, but before she gets as far as the interview, she receives a warning not to attend from a strange woman in black. Ignoring the warning, Sam attends the interview, setting in train an incredible chain of events. Is time travel really possible. Her new employer certainly thinks so, and a sceptical Sam soon finds herself wrapped up in the most incredible experience of her life.
I found Time's Relative an exciting and entertaining read, fast-paced and full of interest, as the woman in black continues to be a threat to Sam and the detective investigating the disappearance of her new employer's missing business partner. 8 don't want to spoil the read by giving away too much in the way of spoilers, but I will say that the author has created a very believable scenario that might have you wondering just how closely the past, present and future are intertwined and interchangeable. A great read that kept me guessing till the end. Worthy of 5 stars from me.
