About This Book

The cool mountain air whispers through the trees, mixing with the scent of fresh pine and distant wildflowers. Imagine drifting off to sleep and suddenly living the whole life of someone from a long, long time ago—hearing their hopes, fears, and dreams as if they were your own. What secrets will a future world reveal about the past, and how might those stories change everything you think you know?
