Publisher's summary

When Deputy US Marshal Danielle "Danny" Martin was told she'd gotten a promotion, she expected to be leading her own fugitive retrieval team. Instead, she got transferred to Pontian, Florida, of all places, and assigned to a Superhero support detail for Focus, a seemingly immortal superhero who is also one of the most famous lesbian icons on the planet.

Bad enough she's got to spend every day working with a woman she's had a crush on since she was five years old, but when she arrives at her new post, things start getting weird. It turns out that Focus asked for her by name, and it quickly becomes apparent that Focus wants to be more than just coworkers, or even friends.

After Focus has a violent reaction to Danny getting hurt in the line of duty, she starts looking into why the Superhero might be so fixated on her. She begins to suspect that seeing the future might be one of Focus's powers, but when a mission leaves her stranded thirty years in the past, right at the start of Focus's superhero career, everything becomes clear, except why the Focus in the past can barely seem to tolerate her presence.

Beautiful Sci-Fi Romance

Loved every bit of this book. Especially like this narrator as well. Very inventive and good paced story line. Nothing I didn’t like about it.

A favorite for years, finally read aloud!

I already have Scatter on my bookshelf, but it’s a special treat to hear an amazing reader perform it. I love the voice they gave to Ayanda, and the accent they did for Eurion was priceless. Looking forward to hearing them do Transistor next!

Wonderfully Written

The story is good and well written. I really enjoyed the fact there is a story and not just Lesbian porn. I listened twice just to pick up the hints of the story from the end to the beginning.. Well worth the time to read and I'm looking forward to other books written by the Author

Whoa so different

Marvel Universe meets Men in Black only verrrrrry sapphic and queer in a way that made me as a cis woman consider my own views in role of anatomy in love

Loved

This isn't my 'normal' genre. That being said I ABSOLUTELY love it. The characters were fantastic and relatable. I loved the strong super hero women, the bad ass take no prisoners characters. The narrator was just ok, not a lot of range within her voice, and her accents kinda sucked. That being said, I still LOVED LOVED this one.

I need more!

Dear Audible,

Please for the love of all things holy, make the rest of Molly’s book into Audible books!

Everybody else:
100% worth a listen.

Beautiful Queer Romance with SciFi and Fantasy shenanigans

I loved how real the relationship between our protagonists felt, and how honest they were with each other. You don’t often see these couples taking steps to make a relationship stay healthy and thriving, but here they certainly do!
Add that to the rest of the fantastic cast of characters and some time travel and magic and you have a book I couldn’t put down

Its even better in audio form

I have read this more times than I can count and hearing it makes it somehow more interesting and draws you in and keeps you there. Its more than science fiction romance, it deals with trauma and healing the importance of clear communication and finding and standing up for yourself.

My new fav!!!

I have listened to this story over 10 times. I love the narration from Jennifer Pickens. Easy to follow and she builds the intensity and emotion.

The world is our own but the differences are well thought out and included in a beautiful show don't tell.

Besides the main characters you Fallin love with this group of US Marshall's, Dragons, and Meta humans.

Followed up by Transistor, Molly J Bragg has become an author I follow awaiting the next creation...

Lovely

What a lovely read. I’ve never read anything quite like it and enjoyed ever moment. What a lovely sapphic love story and the story was fantastic - not just a backdrop to the evolving romance. Excellent read, excellent narration.
