Mercer Evans, a talented junior analyst for a hedge fund who is habitually late for work, starts experiencing vivid dreams that feel more like memories, flashes of places he’s never been and people he’s never met. But then his uncle sends him an old map with Madagascar circled in red. He thinks it’s nothing more than a curious family relic until he realizes there’s more to his family’s history than he ever imagined.
Haunted by his brother’s disappearance and driven by a need for answers to the dreams plaguing him, Mercer digs into his ancestry, uncovering a legacy that stretches back centuries. From the modern streets of New York City to the ancient ruins of Wales and the colonial past of Madagascar, Mercer searches to find the answers he seeks. But with every step forward, Mercer and his sister Lizzy find themselves tangled in a deeper mystery, one that powerful forces are desperate to keep hidden.
Mercer’s dreams reveal hidden truths about his ancestors, secrets tied to pivotal moments in history. As he and Lizzy follow the trail of clues left behind, they discover that some of their family’s choices have had far-reaching consequences. And now, Mercer faces an impossible decision: uncover the truth and risk rewriting history-or let the past remain buried.
But the past isn’t the only thing chasing Mercer. A secret organization that has been manipulating history is watching his every move. If Mercer uncovers too much, he may not live long enough to share what he’s found.
