Produktbeschreibung
England, 1815: Two travelers?Rachel Katzman and Liam Finucane?arrive in a field, disheveled and weighed down with hidden money. They are not what they seem, but colleagues from a technologically advanced future, posing as wealthy West Indies planters?a doctor and his spinster sister. While Rachel and Liam aren't the first team from the future, their mission is by far the most audacious: meet, befriend, and steal from Jane Austen herself. But what they couldn't have anticipated was the continuous convolutions required of living a lie. As Rachel's friendship with Jane deepens and her relationship with Liam grows complicated, Rachel fights to reconcile her true self with the constrictions of nineteenth-century society. When their portal to the future prepares to close, Rachel and Liam struggle with their directive to leave history intact and exactly as they found it . . . however heartbreaking that may prove.
