Annalee Newitz's "Alternate Timeline" is a story about time travel, murder, and the lengths we'll go to protect those we love.
Did seventeen-year-old Beth know that a simple altercation at a Black Face concert would lead her into a car with the body of her friend's boyfriend, a rapist, in the backseat? And that agreeing to help her friends dispose of the body would open the door to even more violence? Thus, Beth realizes that there are many more girls in this world who need protection. Thirty years later, Tess is a professional time traveler, visiting important moments in history and influencing key events to create a safer future. But she is hunted by a dangerous group of time travelers determined to stop Tess's work at any cost. Tess and Beth's lives become intertwined when a war erupts across the timeline, threatening to destroy the very possibility of time travel, leaving only a select few who can influence the past, present, and future. Can one person's actions influence events in the past when confronted by the hidden forces of history?
