About this drama

When archaeologist Maya Bennett cuts her hand on a mysterious bronze hourglass, she awakens seven hundred years in the past—inside the body of Cassian Vale, a feared ruler moments from execution. History remembers Cassian as a tyrant whose death destroyed the Kingdom of Veyra. But Maya discovers he was betrayed by his own court while the neighboring Kingdom of Caldrin prepared to invade. Each time blood activates the hourglass, Maya crosses through time and takes control of Cassian’s body. With Lyra, Seraphine, and the suspicious commander Rowan, she fights to expose the conspiracy and keep Cassian alive. But saving him rewrites the future. Maya returns to a modern Veyra still trapped in a seven-hundred-year war—and discovers she is now its Prime Minister. To restore history, she must return to the past, stop the war, and confront the real Cassian before the shattered timeline becomes permanent for them all.
