This is a captivating novel. It tells the tale of eight individuals touched by a lost and unknown Vermeer painting. The story moves backward in time from present day to the 17th century, and each character has a remarkable tale. The author did a wonderful job detailing each part of the story from a different point of view. Vreeland’s book is absolutely captivating and wonderfully told.

While Clyne is stranded alone, Thea and Eli pop up at the start of the Lewis and Clark expedition, where Thea is mistaken for a runaway slave. After a close escape, the friends make an unsettling discovery about a Prime Nexus that they may have caused — and which will surely change all of history to come.
About the Author
Mark London Williams lives in Los Angeles, where he writes articles, comics, plays, and Danger Boy books, and continues to draw inspiration from his two young sons and one old dog. In fact, when his oldest son was a toddler — long before he played his first video game — he ran down the hall one afternoon shouting, "I'm a Danger Boy!" and then quickly added something about dinosaurs. Mark London Williams has been thanking him for that inspiration ever since.
