About this series
In 2079, a time travel experiment sends physicist Carmela Akronfleck further back in time than she’d intended. Though she’s still in her small northern California town, the year is 1936 and she must learn to live without the technology she’s come to rely on. Her neurological implants should be dormant, but she receives a cryptic message, periodically accompanied by an audio transmission from the future. It’s the voice of her former psychotherapist, an android named Kass, stating his innocence in a series of murders occurring in 2079.
When Carmela deciphers the code as a hit list, she’s shocked to discover her mother and sister are among the intended targets. Further evidence reveals the killer’s true identity, but the inoperative time portal prevents her from returning to save her family and vindicate Kass.
She considers another option: hunt down the killer’s ancestors and avert his existence without radically changing history. She devises a plan to protect her family, haunted by doubts that she’s becoming the kind of person she’s always loathed—one willing to take another’s life.

Northern California, 1966. Dr. Sam Westmoreland never believed his mother's tall tales of time travel. His concern for her mental health motivated him to study psychiatry. When Sam discovers his boss is conducting mind-control experiments on their patients, he’s taken prisoner. Alone in an isolation chamber, Sam believes he’s hallucinating when the ground opens and he is transported through time. Californialand, 2109. Vittie Westmoreland, genetically enhanced since before birth, is learning to control the time portal her family stumbled upon long ago. As an experiment, she pulls her ancestor Sam into the present. Sam wants to get back to the asylum to ensure the safety of his patients, but he's trapped in a world of shapeshifting buildings, AI governments, superhuman freaks, and a Golden state that has declared itself a nation. He meets a younger, pregnant version of his mother, desperate to return to her own time. Long-kept family secrets are revealed as Sam and his mom race against Vittie for control over the portal, and potentially over time itself.

David T. Pennington grew up in a small northern California town called Paradise, but his home is in San Francisco. While his associate’s degree in computer programming has helped pay the bills, his bachelor’s degree in psychology has informed his writing. His love of fiction—mainly mysteries, science fiction, and thrillers—is balanced by his fascination with books on futurism, theoretical physics, and cosmology. Peer Through Time is his debut novel.
