![]() ![]() His journey is very much entwined with Emery's loops.ĭrawn together they must unravel their complicated connection before it's too late. Ash's life is governed by his single-minded pursuit of performing good Samaritan acts to atone for the death of a loved one. It appears that she's tapping into parts of the brain typically left untouched by normal human beings.Įscaping from the hospital, Emery travels to Esperanza, the town from her loops on the upper peninsula of Michigan, where she meets Asher Clarke. They're extremely interested in the data they collect when Emery seizes. So she practically lives in the hospital where her scientist father and an ever-growing team of doctors monitor her every move. The loops are taking their toll on her physically. To Emery they're much more than seizures, she calls them loops-moments when she travels through wormholes back and forth in time and to a mysterious town. And in recent years they've consumed her life. In fact, I’d say I started reading it with only the barest inkling of what it was about something to do with a girl who could time travel and her trying to unravel the mystery of her ability. But for as long as she can remember, she's suffered from seizures. Linko, I went into your debut novel with no expectations. All Emery Land wants is to be like any other 17-year-old-to go to school, hang out with her friends, and just be normal. ![]()
