'A world where a young girl is saved from certain death when an enormous library building suddenly appears in her back yard. A world where the chocolatiers of Bruges halve the world’s population without spilling a drop of blood. A world where a 3D printed rogue and his girlfriend help to steal some of the world’s most valuable books, and an ageing rock star attempts to breaks the rule about being in two places at once.

'A world where it is possible to die a two thousand years before you are born, ageing can be suspended, and where artificial intelligence supplants that of humans.

'A place where sometimes, not even those concerned can tell the difference between being a librarian, thief, or time-cop — particularly when time-travel is involved, and things happen in order, out of order, and simultaneously at different times.' (Publication summary)

'"The main rule is simple. You are to be seen only in public with the lady. You are not to try to spend time alone with her. If you agree, you will have a beautiful woman for all of the right functions and be the envy of your peers." Peter Mortimer agreed to Emily Washburn's main rule....then broke it.

'Now Scott Mawson, an itinerant mathematics teacher and amateur investigator has been hired to find out why Peter Mortimer, an Australian film director with the record for the shortest lifespan of any recipient of a Cannes Film festival leaf, stepped in front of a car just one hour and fifteen minutes after his brush with glory.'
