About this listen

Set in a universe where time is a resource–coveted and exploited, the key to power and privilege–comes a dazzlingly inventive sci-fi fantasy romance by a bestselling Irish author.

Margo is on a train to a new boarding school when she slips into another dimension, passing from the height of Irish summer into the chill of an alien winter, from a 24-hour day to one that begins and ends in just six hours. From a stranger on the train–a travelling salesman by the name of Moon–she learns that New Davia is part of a world scarred by uprisings, travel bans and world sealings. Power is determined by time–who has it, who doesn’t, and who has the freedom to travel between time zones.

Can Margo find a way to get back home–or will she choose to stay in a world where her teenagehood is slipping away faster than ever before, but where she may have found the only person with whom she would choose to spend eternity?
