C R Stalley: The Time Custodian, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Should history be protected-or corrected?

When Lucy Calder accidentally slips through time, she discovers that her late parents were Time Custodians, guardians of the Universal Timeline, and that she is the key to stopping a rogue faction attempting to rewrite history.

Now hunted across centuries by the Order of the Nexus, extremists born from a Custodian civil war, Lucy is drawn into a dangerous conflict over the future of history itself. The Nexus offers a seductive promise: a flawless world shaped by rewriting the past. But every so-called 'correction' comes at a cost.

Intervening in the past offers the chance to undo loss and prevent suffering. Refusing to act means accepting a history shaped by damage, including her own. The closer Lucy comes to that choice, the harder it becomes to tell whether change is an act of justice or a step towards becoming exactly what the Nexus wants.

Spanning pivotal moments such as the Great Fire of London, Nazi Germany, the Taiping Rebellion, and more, THE TIME CUSTODIAN: INHERITANCE explores grief, legacy, and the ethics of rewriting the past, ultimately asking: if you could change history, should you? And would you?
