By P.D. Cain

THE FRACTURE HUNTERS: Episode 4 - THE CLOCK THAT RAN BACKWARDS
When time starts running backwards, three teens must break a deadly loop before reality collapses-but the real danger begins when the countdown starts.

Mei-Lin, Zara, and Finn thought they understood the trials. Solve the puzzle. Use their enhanced abilities. Save the world one challenge at a time.
Then they got trapped in a time loop.
In the basement of their high school, an antique grandfather clock runs backwards, forcing the trio to relive the same five minutes over and over. Every wrong choice resets them. Every loop makes the room more unstable. Walls warp. Reality fractures. And time itself begins to break down.
For Mei-Lin -the analytical genius who sees patterns in everything-this should be easy. But intelligence isn't enough when the trial demands something she's never mastered: letting go of control.
As the loops degrade, the stakes become terrifyingly clear: The basement is collapsing into temporal chaosOnly perfect teamwork can break the cycleSometimes the smartest thing to do is trust someone else to leadWith Zara's strategic mind and Finn's razor-sharp instincts, they must solve the impossible: how do you escape time when time keeps erasing your progress?
But breaking the loop is only the beginning. When the trial ends, the clock reveals something far more sinister-a countdown. Seven days. Zero hour approaching.
Something is coming. Something the trials have been preparing them for. And they're running out of time to stop it.
