In the shadows of Chronic Bay, a small New York suburb pulsing with hidden lives, Isabella Monteverdi, an undocumented immigrant, survives by blending in. But when fate places a mysterious emerald Time Stone in her hands--an artifact tied to ancient gods and the fate of humanity--her quiet existence shatters. Pursued by a ruthless federal judge with a personal vendetta and a hunger for the stone's power, Isabella is thrust into a journey across time itself. Alongside an immortal Mayan wizard, a tech-genius teenager, and a fiercely loyal ex-con, she races through history--from ancient pyramids and Renaissance palaces to dystopian futures and revolutionary pasts. But the true battle isn't just for survival--it's for identity, justice, and the power to change the course of history. The Esmeralda de Tiempo is a sweeping, heart-pounding tale of resilience, transformation, and the ripple effect of a single courageous voice in the fabric of time. What if a single stone could rewrite the past... and reshape the future?
