Malachi, Ruse Master Pamela Schloesser Canepa (A Detours in Time Character Spin-off, #3) Publication date: April 23rd 2020 Genres: Mystery, New Adult, Young Adult Duplicity is Mike’s first nature. If you want to know what he’s doing with his life, just ask, but don’t expect the truth. You may not even be getting his real name… Such duplicity is the reason a so-called ‘acting job’ at a suspiciously sparse agency, LLJF, becomes the perfect solution to Mike’s college drop-out blues.

Malachi is the best at uncovering the truths that others want to hide, and the taste of succeeding at what you are best at is intoxicating. Malachi is willing to do anything to get his paycheck–until he must decide if the thrill of deception is worth the pri
