In 1992, Beth and her friends become vigilantes for justice after a murder sets them on a path for vengeance for all the girls who have been the victims of sexual violence. In 2022, Tess is using the power of time travel to change history for the better. It’s a book about lines of power and convergence and the difference an individual can make.
