Description

In a future where time travel is a reality, a young historian named Kivrin embarks on a perilous journey to the 14th century to study the devastating effects of the Black Death. What begins as a meticulously planned research trip quickly devolves into a desperate struggle for survival when a temporal anomaly strands her centuries in the past. As her colleagues in the future race against time to bring her back, Kivrin finds herself an unwitting beacon of hope amidst the widespread fear and superstition of a world on the brink of collapse. This novel masterfully explores themes of resilience, the enduring nature of the human spirit, and the profound connections that transcend time and suffering.
