To save his mother, seventeen-year-old Elias Vale will have to erase the daughter he hasn't met yet.He can send a single memory backward through time. He cannot do it without losing someone he loves.
Elias is broke and quietly brilliant, the unofficial mapmaker of Greyhaven, a coastal town the sea is slowly swallowing. He knows which streets flood first, and which promises his mother makes only to keep him from being scared. Then one ordinary night the kitchen lights flicker, tomorrow bleeds through the wall, and a single word burns across his map: MERIDIAN.
The truth comes too fast to refuse. Bodies cannot move through time. Memories can. And the memory that finds Elias belongs to a man twenty years older, a future version of himself who watched his mother die, watched the rising water carry Greyhaven away house by house, and watched a small girl in a yellow raincoat reach for him and call him Dad.
Her name is June. She hasn't been born yet. She is also the only one who can teach Elias how to save everyone he loves.
But memory has a price, and the rule is merciless. Every change he makes to keep his mother alive rewrites the future that made June. Her laugh goes first. Then the color of her eyes. Then the small warm weight of her hand in his. To keep the woman who raised him, he may have to give up the child he has only just begun to love.
Eleven days. One impossible choice. And Elias is not the only one who can feel tomorrow turning. The people who can are already certain they know the kindest thing to do with a boy who can rewrite the future.
The Last Year of Tomorrow is an aching, beautiful story about memory, grief, and how much of the world we would unmake to keep one person in it. For readers who love emotional time travel stories, impossible moral choices, and speculative fiction that stays with you long after the last page.
Some choices can't be unmade. Begin The Last Year of Tomorrow today.
