Young Adult Science Fiction
For as long as 17-year-old Alex Wayfare can remember, she
has had visions of the past. Visions that make her feel like
she's really on a ship bound for America, living in
Jamestown during the Starving Time, or riding the original
Ferris wheel at the World's Fair.
But these brushes with history pull her from her daily life
without warning, sometimes leaving her with strange lasting
effects and wounds she can't explain. Trying to excuse away
the aftereffects has booked her more time in the principal's
office than in any of her classes and a permanent place at
the bottom of the social hierarchy. Alex is desperate to
find out what her visions mean and get rid of them.
It isn't until she meets Porter, a stranger who knows more
than should be possible about her, that she learns the
truth: Her visions aren't really visions. Alex is a
Descender - capable of traveling back in time by accessing
Limbo, the space between Life and Afterlife. Alex is one
soul with fifty-six past lives, fifty-six histories.
Fifty-six lifetimes to explore: the prospect is irresistible
to Alex, especially when the same mysterious boy with
soulful blue eyes keeps showing up in each of them. But the
more she descends, the more it becomes apparent that someone
doesn't want Alex to travel again. Ever.
And will stop at nothing to make this life her last.
