    Summary

    (In Time AU) In 2169, time is money—literally. Humans are genetically engineered to stop aging at 25, when the numbers on their arm start counting down from one year. When that time is up, they die. The only way to get more time is to earn it, borrow it, or steal it.

    John Watson lives day-to-day in the crowded slums of Zone 13. He never imagined living any differently—until he meets the practically-immortal Sherlock, and helps him on a case to track a local time-thief...

    In character, very sweet and gripping. Also achingly heartbreaking and beautiful at the end. Definitely worth a read

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Normally not a fan of slavery fics and this could so easily have gone ridiculously kinky or unneededly dark. While touching on the themes, it does neither and it's a wonderful read. The pacing is great, the set-up is brilliantly executed throughout the story, the writing is welldone and sufficiently suspenseful. The characters are spot-on and this is one of the best written version of Mycroft I've read.
    Well worth a read and a re-read

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I've read this fix several times and it still doesn't fail to hit very close to home andbe both heart-wrenching and heartwarming at the same time, while keeping the characters very much in-character. Highly recommended
