Dr. Lydia Thornhill died in 1920 after a mysterious and calamitous life spent immersed in the psychology of the criminally insane. Some say she was herself a criminal at the end. Only Ben Marshal, a police detective in present day Boston, would come experience the true mystery of her inner torment. He never claims to understand it. He only knows that he and others are dangerously connected to it. For Ben, and for Dr. Thornhill too, it will take nothing less than a desperate race across time to save the lives that hang in the balance.
