In 2002, Sarah was a woman who had everything: a brilliant career in physics, a loving husband, and a daughter who was her entire world. In a single heartbeat on a sun-drenched coastal road, it was all stripped away.

Driven by a grief that defies the laws of nature, Sarah perfects the "Temporal Displacement Engine" they once built together. But after dozens of failed attempts to save her family, she learns a bitter truth: The past is a fixed point.

Searching for an answer in the distant future, Sarah leaps forward, passing through a high-tech neon paradise before crashing into the year 802,701. But the lush, 1960s-style garden of the Eloi hides a primitive nightmare.

To save a new world, Sarah must face the Overlord-a man with hypnotic eyes who rules a hive of spider-like monsters. He offers her the one thing she's always wanted: a chance to live in her memories forever. Now, Sarah must decide if she will stay trapped in the perfect lie of 2002, or burn the past to the ground to give the future a chance to breathe.
