About this book

Summary

In 18th-century Europe, Helena, newly widowed, inherits her husband’s telescope and unfinished notes. Grief drives her to the observatory where she begins unlocking cosmic mysteries he left behind. What starts as quiet devotion grows into a dangerous pursuit of truth that challenges the rigid beliefs of her time. Facing suspicion, whispers of heresy, and her own doubts, Helena discovers a vision of luminous bridges in the heavens, evidence of a grand design beyond human understanding. Torn between silence and revelation, she finds the courage to share her husband’s work, stepping into her role as the new keeper of the stars.
