Murder in the Multiverse by R.E. McLean - Book Tour & Review
Murder
in the Multiverse
The
Multiverse Investigations Unit - fighting crime across the Multiverse
Alex
Strand is finding her way as the newest and most ginger member of the
University of Berkeley Physics Faculty.
But when
the murder of reclusive internet billionaire Claire Pope proves insoluble,
she’s recruited to the top-secret Multiverse Investigations Unit.
Hidden in
the parking lot of San Francisco Police HQ, the unit investigates murders by
sending officers to parallel universes in which the victim is still alive – for
now.
Alex
needs to prove herself. With the help of the mysterious Sarita Jones, the
bizarrely-bearded Sergeant Mike Long and Schrödinger the quantum cat, can she
track down the murderer, prevent the same crime from happening in a parallel
version of San Francisco, and get back before closing time?

My Review
Murder in the Multiverse is a strangely fascinating story that will keep readers on their toes. It's a time travel mystery that fans of sci-fi will enjoy. In one timeline/universe, an internet billionaire named Claire is murdered. Considering she was a recluse and never left her house or admitted people in, her death is quite the conundrum. However, she's still alive in another universe/timeline (and she's also made her riches via a different venture), so it's up to the MIU to try and keep this other version of Claire safe while also solving the mystery of her death. Crazy!
I have to say, this book did take me a little while to get into, and while it didn't quite thrill me as much as I would have liked, I did enjoy it and found it to be a decent mystery. I also found the characters to be a fascinating, yet strange bunch of people. Alex is likable. Sarita is a bit odd. Madge is entertaining. And I think Mike was my favorite character. There was just something about him that made him stand out to me more than any of the others. Plus, how can you go wrong with an actual Schrödinger cat?
If you enjoy time travel, sci-fi, or good old-fashioned murder mysteries, you'll want to check out Murder in the Multiverse. I'm sure Alex and the gang will be having many more weird mysteries to solve soon enough.
3.5 stars from me.

Greetings,
budding Multiverse Investigator!
My name's RE McLean and I'm the author of the Multiverse Investigations Unit

When I'm not fighting off quantum cats, jumping between parallel universes and
wondering how my character got turned into a ten-foot rabbit, I spend my time
geeking out with my two sons, laughing at my (very stupid but totally unquantum)
cats and planning the next story.
Do YOU have what it takes to become a Multiverse Investigator?
Join Alex Strand and her team of oddballs as they hop between universes, solve
crimes, and always get back before closing time. And find out how Alex's cat
Schrödinger became a quantum cat in his EXCLUSIVE origins story. All at
