An assignment in twenty-first century New York City should’ve gone smoothly for a well-trained historian like Cathryn Delaney, but her foreknowledge of certain terrorist events arouses the suspicion of a relentless FBI agent, Vivian Wu. 

To further complicate matters, Cathryn has fallen in love with her neighbor—something a time traveler should never do. With an atomic detonation looming, Cathryn races to avoid Agent Wu’s crosshairs to escape on time.

Thomas Finn, a power-hungry narcissist, is envious of Professor Pryce because of his many accomplishments. He’s overshadowed by Chief Allison Lee, who he feels stole his position through her connections. When Chief Lee suffers a personal loss, Finn uses that opportunity to orchestrate a political maneuver that lands him as the World Council Chief. Unfortunately, the position gives him possession of the time traveling device.

What could be more dangerous than a vindictive time traveler?
