Description
Seventeen-year-old Saira Elian has faced her share of challenges, but nothing could have prepared her for the mysterious disappearance of her mother and the strange occurrences that followed. A chance encounter with an old graffiti tag in a tube station sets her on a path that takes her back in time to 19th Century London. There, she meets Archer, a charming student who helps her navigate this unfamiliar world. He reveals to Saira that she is part of a group known as the Immortals, beings who can move between centuries - if they are Descendants of Time. As Saira tries to make sense of her new identity, she finds herself drawn into a complicated web of friendships and romance. But time is running out for Saira's mother, and with it, Saira must confront a devastating secret about Archer's future that could cost him his life.
