Just after midnight, Jen is watching out the window for her teenage son Todd to come home when she sees him murder an older man right outside their house. With her son in custody, Jen goes to sleep in despair but wakes to find herself two days before. Going further and further back in time, Jen searches for clues to the murder and learns things that will change everything she thought she knew about her family.

In an excellent Reese's Book Club pick, Gillian McAllister presents a spin on the traditional time travel novel. I enjoyed how Jen kept going backwards in time, giving a fascinating look at cause and effect. Tracing back through decades of her family, Jen must find the actual root of the murder, which is much deeper in her life than you would expect. Wrong Place Wrong Time makes you ponder the things we do for love and the signs we miss along the way. I especially loved Jen's realization that she was a good mother even if she wasn't perfect.
