To Be An Unknown
Time never stands still. It's always moving, always ticking, always flowing.
At least, that's what you think.
Chase Carrick knows different. He's a Hunter. His job is to keep Time in line.
It's the job of the Hunter to find the Unknowns, and put Time right. But now something has happened that has never happened before...
Verity Cartmell and Hugo Parker are Unknowns. Growing up, on separate sides of the city, they've always made little blips happen in time, not understanding them, but one day-- as every Unknown does-- they create a when everything stops, people are suspended in their actions, and Time stands still. To a Hunter, this is normal. After all, before he himself was a Hunter, he was an Unknown...
But this time, this case is different...
Never have two people, two Unknowns, created one Freezing at the same time... and never have they ran away, and tried to solve the problem for themselves.
But, as Time stands still, Verity and Hugo begin to form a connection, an attraction, a bond, and a team. They begin to work together, but they are alone. Nobody else in the city.
So what happens when they fall in love, but the only way to solve the Freezing means pulling them apart?
How is it possible that they can run out of time when Time is standing still?
