A time-traveling clock tower. A star-worshipping cult. A red-cloaked priest who holds time in the palm of his hand. After a disastrous rescue attempt, an immortal murderer holds Joan captive in a valley where no time passes. She’s desperate to keep Arial occupied and allow Thiago and Gabby to delve into the secrets of the Clock Tower that’s slowly draining them of their magic and sanity. As she’s haunted by terrifying visions of a priest in red, Joan uncovers memories of her past life. A dangerous love, twisted magic with more than a few secrets, and the hooded cult leader whose stolen power has damaged the fabric of time…not to mention her own horrifying death. Joan must recover her forgotten power to repair the Clock Tower and finish what she started in her past life: stopping the Priest from dragging the world—and the people Joan loves most—into timeless darkness.

Joan Sanders is on track for a bright future at NASA, but a strange accident and even stranger dreams draw her to the Cardozas, three mysterious siblings with a charming coffee shop, a dark past, and an uncanny knack for knowing things they shouldn’t. As Joan grows closer to the Cardozas (especially the grumpy, yet charming, older brother), she’s thrown into a world of secrets and magic that challenge everything she believes. And she realizes she may have more in common with them than she thought.

And he may know more about Joan’s past than she does. In this funny and mesmerizing first installment of the Keepers of Time trilogy, M. N. Kinch weaves a magical story of romance and found family, with unforgettable characters you’ll love from the very first page.
