About this listen

A time traveler’s work is never done.

Likable antiques dealer Joseph Bridgeman is back in the present and dreaming of a quiet life. But when a mysterious and enigmatic time traveler arrives in his shop, Joe learns that his first trip was just the beginning and this time, the rules of the game have changed.

Blackmailed into accepting a new mission, Joe is flung back to 1960s London where he comes face-to-face with a ruthless gangster and witnesses the brutal murder of an innocent woman. Joe knows better than most that death can be reversed and the final chapter is sometimes where the story actually begins. Emotionally involved, he has no choice but to act, and quickly. With the help of Vinny, his vinyl-loving sidekick, Joe once again sets out to change the course of history. Sounds simple enough...but when it comes to time travel, nothing is ever as it seems. Who is the old time traveler working for? And who decides what can and can’t be changed?

In a thrilling twist, Joe discovers that the victim is critically important to the future, and what starts out as a straightforward mission soon becomes a race to unravel a mystery - one that threatens the very timeline he fought so hard to protect. Joe must dig deeper than ever, master his newfound skills, and save the woman before the past catches up with him for good.

Turns out time doesn’t heal after all. It just adds salt.

Ray Porter Hits Another Home Run

Ray Porter is an amazing narrator, with a quirky and delightful range of voices. This second book in the Joseph Bridgeman series is a little klunky in spots, but we now have “rules of the game” when it comes to time travel; there’s some great lines in this one, and while our hero’s constant whining of “blackmail” annoyed the Hell out of me, this is a good book and I very much enjoyed it.

Excellent Story and Narration

The story line keeps me guessing! I adore the characters and feel as if I know them. The narrator does a great job! I also love the humour that is spread throughout the story.

Oh, wow.

Absolutely fantastic. Brilliant writing and Ray's narration never ceases to entertain and convey the intended emotion. Can't wait for the third.

Ray saves Nick’s book

Nick, there’s way too many inconsistencies regarding how time travel works. I know it’s difficult writing about time travel, but it’s frustrating when you bend change the rules throughout the book. I was somewhat forgiving until you smashed the rules with Vinny. Why does Vinny remember anything about the way things were? Dude!

Good listen

Another great book. The only hard thing for me were the accents. Ray porter did so good the first time, but in this one they were inconsistent and confusing. I almost DNF at one point. But still a fun little series.

More Joseph Bridgeman!

A solid second entry in the series. We need more great writers like this. Mr. Porter slays the narration!
