Details

Skipshock is a gripping journey through a network of train lines that defy the rules of time, weaving together survival, identity, and the profound consequences of movement. Margo, a troubled schoolgirl reeling from her father's death, is thrust into Moon's world—a salesman navigating interconnected realms where time moves unpredictably. Traveling north accelerates time, turning days into mere hours, while heading south slows it down, stretching a single day into weeks. Slow worlds bring longevity and wealth, while fast worlds breed danger, where death is common and salesmen rarely live long.

As Margo struggles to adapt to this reality, her bond with Moon deepens, and she begins to feel the weight of lost time. Questions linger—who is Moon, truly? And what is Margo's role in this unfolding fate? Told from both of their perspectives, this novel challenges perceptions of love, time, and existence itself.
