Tempus Fugitive

A novel in progress.

In 2002, a teenager named Hank Jennings is arrested, convicted, and sentenced to death for a series of brutal murders. Ten years later, he is executed, still professing his innocence. Suddenly, it is 2002 again, and Hank comes to realize that he has somehow been given a chance to find the real murderer. Every time the police catch him, he is executed all over again, but returns to 2002 with fresh memories of where the police will be waiting for him. At first, his goal is to clear his name—but after a few thousand times around the hellish ten year loop, all he wants is to finally die in peace. But to break free, he'll need to find whoever's done this to him.
