Midnight Strikes (2023) is Zeba Shahnaz’s debut novel, published by Penguin Random House. The story combines time-loop mechanics with court intrigue and YA romance. Each loop gives the protagonist new information, and the repeated deaths are treated seriously rather than played for novelty.
Shahnaz draws on her background in South Asian studies to build a fantasy world that feels distinct from the typical medieval European template. Readers who like Groundhog Day structures with real emotional stakes should pick this up.
