and wakes up in the other. Searching for answers to her unique existence, Caroline stumbles upon a letter from
her mother that hints at her own experiences as a time-crosser, sending Caroline on a quest to uncover the
truth. In 1727, chasing the mysteries of her mother's past, Caroline disguises herself as a cabin boy and joins
a ship sailing for the Bahamas, her mother's last known location. Amid treacherous waters, she crosses paths
with Marcus Zale, a ruthless but handsome pirate, and finds herself caught in a web of secrets, deception, and
unexpected alliances.
Meanwhile, in 1927 St. Paul, Minnesota, Caroline grapples with her other life as the daughter of a renowned
preacher. Her two older brothers have strayed from their upbringing into the corruption rampant during
Prohibition, and Caroline struggles to protect her parents from the truth that could shatter her father's career. As
her search for answers about her time-crossing leads her to the dangerous speakeasies of St. Paul, Caroline
enlists the help of police officer Lewis Cager, a childhood friend. But when her family's future is put at risk and
loyalties are tested, Caroline is faced with a life-altering decision that could reshape her destiny.

The exciting third installment in Meyer’s Timeless series (after For a Lifetime) follows a 20-year-old time traveler as she grapples with her identity in two different centuries. Caroline splits her days between 1927 St. Paul, Minn., where she’s the daughter of a minister, and 1727 South Carolina, where her hardheaded grandfather wants to marry her off to the wealthy Thomas Shepherd. Caroline has other plans, however, especially after she discovers a letter from her mother revealing that she, too, was a time traveler. Seeking answers about her past, Caroline disguises herself in 1727 as a boy and finds work on a ship bound for the Bahamas, where her mother said she was headed in the letter. When the ship is captured by pirates, Caroline turns to an unexpected ally, quartermaster Marcus, to keep her true identity a secret and help her survive. Amid the high-stakes action, which toggles between the high seas and Prohibition-era speakeasies, Caroline wrestles with her faith as she works to understand whether her time-traveling ability is a curse or a gift. Propulsive and intricately detailed, this hits all the right notes.
