Publisher's summary

Best Thrillers Awards winner!

When the FBI arrested Professor Eldridge for the murder of his archrival, they relied primarily on eyewitnesses’ accounts and a security camera. The professor had been on the other side of the country when the crime took place, where he gave a lecture to hundreds of students.

Did he use the laws of nature to commit an impossible homicide?

Carefully crafted and deeply absorbing, Liam Falkov’s genre-bending novel blends the taut, pause-resisting nature of a legal thriller with a moving coming-of-age story. As two seemingly unconnected narratives surge closer and closer together, their inevitable intertwining leads to a searing conclusion you won’t expect.

Critic reviews

A Quantum Alibi delivers a torrent of surprises. But thanks to Fialkov’s uncommon gift for plot and just enough information about quantum theory, readers won’t require a leap of faith to enjoy the stunning conclusion.” (Best Thrillers)

“Superbly written, well-rounded characters and a riveting storyline filled with twists and turns.” (Readers’ Favorite®)

“An intelligent crime drama.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Dreadful

I thought this might be an interesting book about quantum physics and instead it was a book about Indian lore and religion. It was mildly interesting but the narrator RUINED the little interest the book had. He read at a ridiculously slow pace like he was reading a Dick and Jane primer to kindergartners. I had to speed up the narration to even stand to listen to it. What a shame this narrator was so horrid. Very disappointed.

I was so disappointed

I am fascinated by quantum physics and love legal mysteries. This was neither! And the narrator spoke so slowly, uttering only three words at a time, that I had to put the speed on 1.4 to listen. I finally gave up and jumped to the last two chapters. The concept was fine, the execution Was disappointing.
