The Sentinel/Nash Bridges (R)
Title: A Step Backwards
Pairing: Jim, Blair, Naomi (gen)
Author on LJ: n/a
Author Website: LRHBalzer at Wolfspups Den
Why this must be read:
Blair trades places with his two-year old self. Though the premise may sound corny the author does an amazing job of making it work. It is well written story with an intriguing plot and on the spot characterization. No, baby Blair does not turn in to some super, amazing prodigy child. He is just a confused toddler who wants to go home to his mama. He does retain his natural curiosity and it is easy to see glimpses of the man Blair will be.
The plot? During the middle of a case Jim wakes up to find a toddler in Blair's bed, but no Blair. Blair wakes up at a 1971 outdoor musical festival where he finds Naomi reporting her two year old son as missing. Interwoven throughout the past and present are clues that will eventually tie together cases from both realities.
The Nash Bridges crew shows up in both the past and present in supporting roles. No previous knowledge of them is necessary. This story is actually part of a larger series, though it does stand on its own. Primary Focus starts the series, and the Nash Bridges crew start their appearance in the fourth story.
Naomi pulled out her wallet and put the bag away. She opened it to a photo and sat staring at it.
"Who's that?" he asked, after a moment.
"My son." She slid the photo from the wallet and handed it to Ellison.
He looked down at the photo, then looked to the child. Both children -- the one in the photo and the one on his couch -- were wearing identical outfits. Denim overalls, with a red and white striped T-shirt. He started to smile at the resemblance, then stopped. Both children had identical hair, identical bracelets and leather neck chains. Both children had identical . . . everything. "I don't understand," he whispered.
A Step Backwards
The story is hosted on a site that has highly annoying ads so I have linked by way of the Way Back Machine. The original link is here and the original site is here..
