The man bites his bottom lip and meets her eyes as his face begins to shutter. "I see, I'm early."
"Do you know me?"
"This was as close as I could get so suddenly, and I had to see you. I watched you die. I watch you die in my arms."
One second Sid's a perfectly normal girl, the next she's being kissed on the stairs of her new high school by a boy she's never met. He knows her. She doesn't know him, at least not yet.
She's never met her father, but after her mother dies during a mugging-gone-wrong, that's exactly where she ends up. With her pro-basketball playing father, his brood of five kids, and his new model-turned-designer wife. It's the last place she's ever wanted to be.
It's the tip of the iceberg.
She's never been normal. She's a Traveller, innately capable of jumping through time and space. The first time it's an accident. The second time she's pushed. And by the third she realizes she's in over her head. Everyone knows her but she's never met them before including a secret society that tries to kill her the first time she ever lays eyes on them.
Sid's jumped headfirst into the middle of a centuries old battle. She has to figure out the rules before she winds up dead in some foreign time and country. And she thought living with her father would be the hard part.
