Julian Prescott is a clinical corrector for the Orthodoxy, a sterile faction dedicated to pruning unauthorized historical deviations to preserve a mathematically perfect future. But Julian’s calculated world fractures when he uncovers a handwritten letter hidden in the brickwork of 1882 London, addressed to his secret name.

As the two star-crossed agents exchange letters across history, from the Great Library of Alexandria to the ash-choked streets of Pompeii, their forbidden connection triggers a critical, physical decay of their own timelines. Hunted by their respective factions and unable to physically touch without triggering a destructive paradox, Julian and Aurora must solve a final, desperate equation to escape the eternal temporal war and carve out a quiet reality of their own in the margins of time.
