Welcome to the second book in the New Rules of Time Travel series: 1938 The Deceiver. Amidst the backdrop of 1938's tumultuous world stage, where the Empire State Building becomes the unlikely anchor for international dirigibles and the specter of war looms near, our protagonist, Sarah Williams, finds herself entangled in a clandestine battle that spans the ages. Haunted by memories and driven by a quest for justice, Sarah's journey transcends mere vengeance. Her path is one of profound transformation, where the mysteries of the past become the keys to the future. From the hallowed halls of St. John's to the hidden catacombs beneath, the stakes are as personal as they are global. In contrast, Douglas Mico's tale of unwitting displacement and survival is a vivid reminder of the fragility of existence and the unpredictable nature of time itself. Stripped of his future and thrust into a past that is not his own, Douglas's struggle for identity and purpose mirrors our own fears of displacement and the eternal quest for belonging. As the narrative weaves through the complexities of time, the Brotherhood of the Lemniscate Cross and the secretive machinations of the Time Operations Executive emerge as embodiments of the timeless conflict between control and freedom. Their shadowy tug-of-war over the fabric of time reveals the dual nature of power—its capacity to both liberate and oppress. Amidst the cacophony of the past and the whisperings of the future, Sarah Williams and Douglas Mico stand as beacons of hope, courage, and the unyielding belief that even in the darkest of times, the light of the human spirit can illuminate the way forward. Embark on this enthralling odyssey—a tapestry of time that unravels the mysteries of the past, challenges the present, and reimagines the future. "The New Rules of Time Travel" series is a gateway to the past and a guidepost for the future, inviting you to explore the infinite possibilities that lie within the domain of time.
