The ‘86 Fix (2016) was Keith A. Pearson’s first novel and remains his most popular. The premise is simple: a middle-aged man is given the opportunity to travel back to 1986 and change the course of his life. What follows is a mix of nostalgia, humor, and genuine tension as he discovers that altering the past creates consequences he never anticipated. The book captures the feel of 1980s Britain with specific period detail, from the music to the clothes to the social attitudes, and readers who grew up in that era have responded strongly to it.
Beyond Broadhall (2017) continues the story, dealing with the fallout of the first book’s events and introducing new complications. Tuned Out (2019) wraps up the trilogy, pushing the characters into situations that test everything they have learned. Across all three books, Pearson balances the fun of his time travel premise with real emotional stakes, making the series work both as entertainment and as a story about regret, second chances, and whether the past is really something that can be fixed.
