Thirty Minutes to Yesterday
Months after Clara Bennett ended their relationship and began a new life with another man, she called Adrian Mercer at 2:17 a.m. Her voice was shaking. Something was wrong. She needed him to pick up. Still bitter over the breakup, Adrian watched the phone ring. He listened as her message began-and let pride make the decision for him. By dawn, Clara was dead. Twenty years later, Adrian is fifty-two and leading an archaeological excavation in Egypt when his team opens a sealed chamber.
Inside lies a black oval etched with thirty narrow marks and five unfamiliar symbols-an artifact capable of sending his consciousness into moments he has spent half his life replaying. Five journeys. Thirty minutes each. Enough time to answer the call. Enough time to save Clara. But the artifact demands a price: every return takes one memory of her. As Adrian changes the past, each altered future exposes another truth he failed to hear while Clara was alive.
The closer he comes to saving her, the more of her he loses-and the more he must confront the difference between giving Clara a future and forcing himself back into it. Hidden in the final seconds of the message he never allowed himself to finish is a truth that could destroy the story he has told himself for twenty years. With one journey remaining, Adrian must decide whether he is willing to save Clara on her terms-even if the life she chooses has no place for him.
How many memories would you sacrifice to save the person you love-if saving them meant letting them go?
