In what Publisher’s Weekly calls a “heartfelt and thrilling debut,” Mike Chen writes of Kin Stuart, a time travelling agent of the TCB—the Temporal Corruption Bureau. Sent on assignment from San Francisco circa 2142, Stuart find himself stranded in 1996. After waiting futilely for rescue, against all protocols, he eventually builds a life with a wife and daughter. And then they show up, eighteen years later. Chen has all kinds of fun with sci-fi tropes and world building, but at its heart, this is a novel about a father’s love for his child. Please join us in welcoming Mike Chen, the newest member of the Bay Area literati.
