A dying wizard, a thousand years of spells poised to fade with him, and a kingdom that will likely follow if a successor is not found. Too bad the most likely candidate has no idea he's a wizard.

A mass murder on Mars, a suspect who couldn't possibly have done it, a cover-up, and a reluctant Earth detective recruited to figure it out. Most people come to Mars for one of two reasons: entertainment or mining. Simon Lane and Detective Jake DeVitt are not most people. One of them is there to prove his innocence and the other is searching for a criminal. What they'll uncover is even bigger than the crime binding them together.

Echoes of Another Earth by J Daniel Layfield

SPSFC 2022

A scientist in hiding. An admiral on the brink of treason. A man who has lived hundreds of versions of his life across the same number of dimensions. Three paths converge in one dimension. Their actions will affect them all. Josh hasn't really felt like himself since the first time he died. It's funny what you can get used to though. With his next jump into another Josh's life, he may finally get some answers, but does he want to hear them? Better question: can he trust the scientist being hunted by his past? Whatever Josh chooses, his actions will either aid in saving this dimension from destruction, or add it to a long list of ones destined to end.
