WARNING: Anything can happen in a Split Second 
Becker Drane's still got the coolest job in The World, but it's getting harder and harder to live a normal life outside of The Seems. He's definitely feeling the strain of being a teenager (complete with mood swings and a newfound respect for sarcasm) and he can't stop thinking about Jennifer Kaley, the totally cool girl he met during his Mission in Sleep. Things don't get any easier when a bomb explodes in the Department of Time and Becker is called in to pick up the pieces after a more senior Fixer couldn't disarm the device. It's his toughest mission yet, and Becker finds himself going places in The Seems he never knew existed, and meeting people long thought dead. Yep, it's just another day in the life of Becker Drane. Let's hope he lives to Fix again . . . .

The Seems: The Split Second: Book 2

The Golden Rule: No employee, agent, or advocate of The Seems having access (or with access) to the confidential Case File of a person in The World may engage in contact, communication, and/or relationship with said person, romantic or otherwise.
Becker Drane has been known to bend a few Rules when saving The World. But the one Rule Becker swore to obey has proven to be the easiest to break. And the Powers That Be aren't putting up with it anymore. Becker is on serious probation.
But then a Train containing six weeks worth of Thought mysteriously disappears in the Middle of Nowhere. Becker is called-along with a crack team of veteran Fixers-to work the Mission.
Almost immediately, things take a turn for the weird. As The World's supply of Thought dwindles, a centuries-old mystery is solved, long-lost friends are found, and Becker's Fixing skills are pushed to the limit. But even if he manages to finish this Mission safely (and prove his worth to the Powers That Be), it might be his last Fix. . . .
