Nuremberg, 1938: On the night of Kristallnacht, eleven-year-old Lisavet Levy is hidden by her father from approaching forces in a mysterious place called the time space—a library where the memories of the past are stored inside books. When her father doesn’t return, she becomes trapped, spending her adolescence walking through the memories of those who lived before. When she discovers that living timekeepers are entering the time space to destroy memories and shape history to their liking, Lisavet sets out to salvage the past, creating her own book of lost memories. Until one day in 1949, when she meets an American timekeeper named Ernest Duquesne, intent on stopping her. What follows sets her on a course to change history—and the time space itself—forever. Boston, 1965: Amelia Duquesne is mourning the death of her uncle and guardian, Ernest, when she’s approached by Moira, the enigmatic head of the CIA’s secretive Temporal Reconnaissance Program. Moira tells her about the time space—accessed only by specially designed watches whose intricate mechanisms have been lost to time—and enlists her help in recovering a strange book her uncle once sought. But Amelia soon realizes that the past—and the truth—are not as straightforward as Moira would have her believe. A sweeping, cinematic love story, this feat of imagination explores memory, time, and the lengths we go to protect those we love.
