Mara Ellison can see fragments of the past through the objects she touches, a secret she has kept her entire life. When she returns to Bellwether and touches a silver watch belonging to Julian Veyne, she sees something impossible: a future in which Julian lies unconscious beneath the city as a clock counts down to midnight. Julian, the guarded heir to a private historical archive, has been searching for someone like Mara for years, because only her ability can close the Chronal Vault, a buried scientific experiment that is erasing the memories of everyone connected to it. As Mara and Julian investigate the Vault together, they uncover a truth that implicates both their families: Mara's mother died trying to shut it down, and Julian's father helped build it. The closer they get to the Vault's core, the closer they get to each other, and the higher the cost of what closing it will require. To save Julian and the city, Mara may have to surrender the memory she cannot live without. But the future she chooses to fight for is the one she is only beginning to build.
