Inspired by hit TV series Life on Mars, comes Between Two Worlds, an engaging short story that follows young Rebecca Harrison. When Rebecca falls down the stairs at a 2006 college party, she wakes up to find herself in the year 1983.

Loss is a key theme that fuels the plot of this intriguing read. Rebecca's character is well-rounded and intuitive. She notices subtle differences between herself and the personality of the 'mystery Rebecca' that would have resided back in 1983 before her. Where real Rebecca is an introvert, the mystery Rebecca is an extroverted party animal.

Time travel, longing, and a quest to return to her true time make Rebecca's story a gripping read. I would recommend to lovers of short fiction and sci-Fi. Rated 4/5 stars.

The story in this book is intriguing.

Can we be two places at one time?

Is it really possible to observe yourself from another dimension?

The story begins in Indiana, with the main character, a graduate student called Rebecca Harrison attending a Halloween party in 2006. However as she leaves the party, the nightmare begins….

Suddenly she is transported back in time to 1983 where she finds herself in her childhood home town of Fanwood, New Jersey. This is only the beginning though. She still has her own name, a local address, although not her childhood one, and people recognise her as an adult!

How can this happen?

How can she be there, and, since she is, is it possible she is also living there as a child, with her family?

What will happen if their paths cross?

Evidently, she has an established life and friends, however deep down she knows something is not right, and then there are the strange dreams.

Confused and unhappy Rebecca craves to know the truth. She is desperate to discover if she can return to 2006.

Will she be able to?

To find out, you will have to read the book!

I found this a fascinating story and it kept me on the edge of my seat until the very last page.… (meer)
