An impossible wish
As the twentieth anniversary of 9/11 approaches, trauma nurse Lydia Clay still struggles to make sense of the tragedy. When she sees an unusual star streak across the sky, she can't resist making a wish. It may be impractical. It may be impossible. But that doesn't stop her from wishing that somehow the attacks of 9/11 could have been stopped and all those people saved.
The next morning, she wakes up in the Brooklyn apartment she called home during nursing school. The date is September 10th, 2001. Impossibly, she has been given the opportunity to answer her own wish. The only question is, how?
An unlikely alliance
Washington Post
journalist Ian Greenberg wants to write about terrorism but according to his editor, it's a non-topic. With his local politics column due, he needs to spend his Monday writing. But a cagey woman derails his plans when she calls and promises a lead on a terrorism story. By meeting with her, he thinks he's risking his career, but there's much more at stake. Because Mystery-Lead Lady doesn't have a lead for him at all. What she has is information about an attack scheduled to take place the very next day. And she needs Ian's help to stop it.
A race against evil
To undo a terrible wrong, a woman from the future and a skeptical journalist with government connections must turn back the clock on evil.
