On a road extraordinaire, I met a deer who wasn't there. Emily Charron is only a few weeks from getting her Ph.D., but getting the final parts of her dissertation done in time for the graduation deadline is becoming increasingly hampered by academic power struggles. Chris Rodriguez, her best friend since kindergarten, is doing all he can to keep her from being overwhelmed. Hampering both is the fact that Emily is one of a small number of people born with what some might call superpowers. But super is the last adjective Emily would use to describe her totally useless ability. The ability to travel in time is considered one of the iconic powers, but Emily can only use it to go back and keep animals from getting killed on the road. She's managed to keep it a secret from everyone, until now, and its revelation is going to change everything in her life, including her relationship with Chris. Together, Chris and Emily need to find out what's happening at the university as well as what's happening between them. They've never lied to each other, but it's becoming increasingly clear that they haven't been entirely honest either. Road Kill: A humorous, geeky, urban fantasy, romance, mystery with quirky time travel superpowers, academic skullduggery, a sarcastic Eurasian lynx, and two childhood friends that seriously need to sit down and talk to each other.

Autorenporträt
Paul Haggerty is a semi-respectable SF fan, having read almost enough of the classics, though never being able to remember the details when pressed. Not being particularly clever, he is human, after all, Paul has entered into a partnership with the house cats, being their literary catspaw to ham-handedly transform their brilliant ideas into hopefully acceptable English.
