The twelve jumps

The Twelve Jumps

A Novel of Time, Grief, and God

By Zachary Blessing

Twelve chances to change one unbearable moment.

When an impossible object falls into the Mojave Desert, it freezes the surrounding landscape and disrupts time itself. For Dr. Lucian Cross, the discovery opens a door science was never prepared to find.

Then his wife dies.

Consumed by grief, Lucian builds the Chronarch Engine—a machine that navigates time through memory and emotional attachment. It offers him twelve jumps, and a destination he would sacrifice almost anything to reach: the moment before he lost Selah.

But saving her could change the life of their newborn son. Every intervention reaches beyond the person he intends to rescue, drawing other lives into consequences he cannot predict.

Meanwhile, the forces behind Project Janus are watching. They see possibilities far beyond one grieving man’s desperate hope—and intend to decide how history should unfold.

As Lucian crosses the boundaries between seconds, his search becomes a struggle over who has the right to change a life, which memories can be trusted, and what love demands when the impossible becomes possible.

Blending time travel, cosmic mystery, and psychological suspense, The Twelve Jumps follows a man whose greatest discovery offers him another chance—and no certainty about its cost.
