\|cover=Snapshot Dragonsteel edition.jpg \|released= February 17, 2017 \|word-count=23,564 }} '''''Snapshot''''' is a non-[[cosmere]] science fiction novella by Brandon Sanderson.{{ref\|name=noncosmere}} == Synopsis == {{quote \|If you could re-create a day, what dark secrets would you uncover? The Photographer returns, and they follow him back to his residence, which happens to be very near the location of the second investigation that they were supposed to do. Davis confronts the Photographer and pretends to understand why he needs to kill all those people. He considers them [[Deviation]]s that must be cleansed from the Snapshot so that it can keep going. He reveals a plan to kill a bunch of children with peanut allergies in a few days. Chaz comes up from behind and shoots the Photographer, and Davis then puts his own plan into action to kill Chaz using a gun from a nearby gang shootout. Chaz has been sleeping with his ex-wife in the Snapshot while he plays with his son. At the last minute, Davis decides that he needs to start a new life without his ex-wife, and does not shoot Chaz. Later, Chaz and Davis leave the Photographer's house after sharing a ~~bar~~drink and are confronted by the woman from the diner and another man. They are there in a Snapshot of a Snapshot to investigate Davis's murder of his partner, which really did happen in the original Snapshot. In this Snapshot, Davis was a Deviation, caused by the woman detective giving him her phone number. Davis demands to see the reality badge, and his life winks out as the detectives turn off the Snapshot. ==Development== ;Con-Exclusive Hardcover Edition (possibly with ''[[Dreamer]]''):2017 - Dragonsteel Entertainment{{ref\|name=branannounce}} == Cover ~~Art~~ Gallery == {{for\|/Covers\|a cover gallery of Snapshot}} ==Trivia== ''Snapshot'' was originally set in a [[Reckoners Multiverse\|Core Possibility]] in the universe of [[The Reckoners]],{{reddit ref\|Stormlight_Archive\|5j8bkb\|dbeh6y6\|text=It's one of the Other Core Possibilities.\|date=2016-12-19}} but [[Brandon]] changed his mind and removed it from the universe because the film rights of the series and the novella are owned by different companies.{{wob ref\|2959}} ==Notes==
