"A time tourist goes rogue in this stunning sci-fi thriller from husband-and-wife duo Paul Vlitos and Collette Lyons, writing as Lloyd (The Final Act of Juliette Willoughby). . . . Well-wrought characters lend texture and emotional resonance to the intricate and diabolically clever plot. It's a triumph." - Publisher's Weekly (starred review)
"Lloyd (The Final Act of Juliette Willoughby), the pen name for a British husband-and-wife writing team, continues a winning streak with this pitch-perfect time-travel thriller. . . . The setting is wonderfully constructed, the pacing is fast and orderly, and the characters are well-drawn. This is a thriller blended with old-school science fiction at its best: a story rooted in current reality and fertilized with a healthy dose of dystopia. Reminiscent of Elly Griffiths's The Frozen People and anything by Michael Crichton, it's perfect beach or vacation reading." - Library Journal (starred review)
"Time to Burn has many of the things I love about time-travel novels.

"Time to Burn is very much about the suppleness of time and of memory, about friendship and family, about wealth, privilege and greed. At the same time, Ellery Lloyd adroitly combines the revenge thriller and the cautionary thriller into an undeniably clever hybrid.

"Ellery Lloyd crafts a mesmerizing time-hopping mystery around the question: what if time travel is possible, but only for the uber-rich? Film-maker Phoebe Hunt arrives at the tech headquarters of mysterious billionaire Inigo Frank, the man who not only cracked the secret of time travel but made it into a tourist attraction for the wealthy. Frank insists he wants an honest documentary from Phoebe, but she remains skeptical-especially when a trip to 1941 goes terribly wrong, and a real estate heiress gets stranded back in the London Blitz. As troubles mount and timelines begin to fray, Phoebe comes to realize that her own troubled past is somehow entwined with the missing time traveler-but how? Time to Burn offers twists and turns galore, a true delight to the last page!" - Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye and The Rose Code
