Description
What would you pay for a short re-wind?
Tom Booker is a new attorney at a powerful Washington law firm. Texting while driving across Memorial Bridge, he loses control and crashes into an oncoming minivan carrying his own daughter and three of her friends. The minivan tips up on two wheels, about to flip over into the Potomac. Time freezes, he's alone on the bridge. A young couple approaches and offers him a re-wind. The crash would be averted, the children saved. All he must do is kill someone every two weeks—anyone—for a soul exchange. A moment later, Tom is back in his spinning car, but averts the deadly crash. He laughs about the hallucination, attributing it to bumping his head on the steering wheel when his car came to an abrupt stop. But his encounter wasn't a hallucination. Two weeks later, the minivan driver is brutally murdered. Tom receives a text: one down, four to go. He has never shot, much less owned, a gun in his life, but now he must turn himself into a serial killer or his daughter and her friends will die.
Advance Praise
“One To Go by Mike Pace spins out a fascinating premise—what if a hideous mistake in life could be rewound?—into a ripping good novel, with a mix of tight plotting, explosive excitement, and vivid characters. Highly recommended.”
—Douglas Preston, #1 best-selling co-creator of the Pendergast series of novels
“— a ripping good novel, with a mix of tight plotting, explosive excitement, and vivid characters.”
—Douglas Preston, New York Times best-selling author
“Law & Order meets The Exorcist! This entertaining and original chiller will lead you along one surprising twist and turn after another. Read this creepy page-turner with all the lights on!”
—Hank Phillippi Ryan, Anthony, Agatha, Macavity and Mary Higgins Clark award winning author
"A terrific mix of murder and mayhem, with a clever woo-woo twist that will keep you on your toes. Definitely worth the price of admission."
—Steve Berry, New York Times best-selling author of King’s Deception
“Riveting in suspense, One to Go by Mike Pace is a pulse-pounding journey from Washington, D.C.’s most influential backrooms and courtrooms into its most dangerous neighborhoods. When attorney Tom Booker discovers his family is being threatened by two of Satan’s most effective angels of death, Booker digs deep to find a slice of morality on which to stand and do battle. With a supporting cast of memorable characters buttressed by muscular prose, One to Go is a devilishly clever tale, one you won’t want to miss. “
— Gayle Lynds, New York Times best-selling author of The Book of Spies
"The blisteringly original One to Go is one of those rare books that bends genres as it poses one of those rare What If? questions you've never seen before. Mike Pace has fashioned a relentlessly suspenseful, gut-wrenching tale that's both homage to the classic Twilight Zone and a kind of post-modern take on early Stephen King with a wildly imaginative concept realized to the fullest. A book that promises a lot but makes good on every page in this absolutely stellar debut."
—Jon Land, best-selling author of Strong Darkness

Review: ONE TO GO
This novel is something else, quite literally! It's very effective and I really had no difficulty with suspension of disbelief. That's not to say there's not tons of surprises: believe me, there are. Divorced attorney Tom Booker finds himself imminently the cause of multiple fatalities, with the unexpected, should be impossible, chance to repair the damage, if he will agree to kill.
Collette M, Reviewer
Loved it from the first page to the last with the only problem being I couldn't stop reading it. What a great and original idea and how well all the characters were developed. I had no idea what was going to happen and one fabulous surprise at the end. I was constantly trying to come up with ideas for how the central character could achieve what he need to do (cannot say more of the story will be spoiled).
One of those books that you cannot wait for your friends to read too then you can chat about it. I would love to read more stories with the detective who is in this one.
