When Tommorow Remembers

Detective Marcus Rivera has spent three years hunting "The Phantom," a masterful jewel thief whose daring heists have captivated New York City. When he finally tracks her down during a museum robbery, he finds himself face-to-face with Elena Kovacs - a woman whose emerald eyes hold secrets darker than the shadows she hides in. Instead of reaching for his handcuffs, he finds himself mesmerized by her whispered plea: "Some chains can't be seen."

Through a series of cryptic clues left at crime scenes, Elena begins revealing fragments of her story to Marcus. He discovers she was once a promising ballet dancer until the notorious Volkov crime family murdered her mother and forced her into becoming their thief, using her athletic grace and skill to steal priceless artifacts. They still hold her younger sister captive, ensuring Elena's compliance through brutal threats.

As Marcus secretly meets with Elena to unravel the Volkovs' operation, their professional boundaries blur into dangerous attraction. Each stolen moment together reveals a woman desperate to escape her gilded cage, and a detective increasingly willing to bend the law to save her. But their growing closeness catches the eye of Ivan Volkov, the ruthless family patriarch who has long seen Elena as his personal property.

When Elena attempts to steal evidence that could destroy the Volkovs' empire, Ivan retaliates by targeting Marcus's teenage daughter from a failed marriage. The case explodes into a desperate race against time, with Marcus forced to choose between his badge and saving both Elena and his daughter from Ivan's vengeance.

Gideon Gavin

author

Gideon Gavin, born in 1966 in Melbourne, Australia, is an acclaimed novelist known for his masterful blend of crime fiction, psychological suspense, and deeply human storytelling. After spending two decades as a criminal defense attorney in Sydney, Gavin traded the courtroom for the writer's desk, bringing his intimate understanding of human nature and the justice system to his literary works.

His debut novel, "Shadows in the Harbor" (2008), drew from his legal experience and earned him the Australian Crime Writers' Association Award for Best First Novel. Since then, Gavin has published eight novels, including the internationally bestselling "The Judge's Secret" (2015) and "When Tomorrow Remembers" (2024), each exploring the complex moral landscapes where love and law intersect.

Gavin lives with his wife, celebrated photographer Diana Chen, in a restored lighthouse keeper's cottage on the rugged coast near Byron Bay. The isolation and raw beauty of the location serve as inspiration for many of his stories. When not writing, he mentors aspiring authors through the Queensland Writers Centre and volunteers with a prisoner rehabilitation program, experiences that continue to inform his nuanced portrayal of characters on both sides of the law.

A self-proclaimed "night owl," Gavin maintains his practice of writing in the pre-dawn hours, a habit developed during his years as a practicing attorney. His methodical approach to crafting suspense, combined with his deep empathy for the human condition, has earned him a devoted international readership and critical acclaim.

His works have been translated into twenty-three languages, and "When Tomorrow Remembers" is currently being adapted for a major streaming service. Despite his success, Gavin remains committed to his core mission: telling stories that challenge readers' preconceptions about justice, redemption, and the transformative power of love.

Awards include the Miles Franklin Literary Award (2018), two Ned Kelly Awards for Crime Writing, and the prestigious Victorian Premier's Literary Award. Gavin continues to draw inspiration from his legal background, his coastal home, and the complex characters he encounters in his volunteer work.
