About this audiobook

Erwin Tucker, a UCL historian obsessed with cause and effect, is recruited by the Clock Tower—an underground institute that can nudge the past with infinitesimal quantum pulses. A small success saving schoolchildren draws him into bigger gambles: averting war, then unleashing unintended chaos. Soon a hidden rival emerges, then a third force—the Nihilists—engineering catastrophe to shatter civilization. In a clandestine, three-way temporal war, Erwin and reluctant “Guides” race to unwind the web leading to a 2029 nuclear exchange, risking a full timeline reboot. When the world quietly survives, memory resets—but the invitation arrives again. Fate, it seems, is a loop you choose to enter.
