1883, Virginia. Twenty-four-year-old Charles has been struggling to take care of his mother and widowed sister as his horse farm has been facing losses ever since the death of his father a few years ago. His 1563 life in England, though more opulent, comes with its own share of struggles. (Yes, Charles lives two lives simultaneously. Read the earlier Timeless books to know how this works.) His main concern there is his stepsister Cecily, who has no one except him. Cecily works in the court of Queen Elizabeth, but if Charles has to secure her future, he needs to get her wed to a wealthy and titled man.
Charles has a time-crossing friend named Andrew who coincidentally occupies the same two time periods. When they realise that they can help each other in one of their paths, they embark upon an unusual bargain, one which leads to severe consequences for all of them, Cecily included.
The story comes to us in the first-person perspectives of Charles in 1883 and Cecily in 1563.
