In the boardroom of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, a small group of scholars and experts gathers to confront the impossible. Before them lies a photograph taken in 1996. Across the room hangs a portrait of a young woman, completed by Mary Cassatt in 1926. The images are identical down to the smallest detail. The evidence points to an astonishing conclusion: Cassatt painted the portrait from a photograph that would not exist for another seventy years.
Sean Stuyvesant, a brilliant young photographic forensic scientist, and Lisette Moreau, an accomplished curator at Paris's Mus嶪 d'Orsay, are tasked with unraveling the mystery. Their investigation uncovers two tantalizing connections: the photograph was taken by Sean's eccentric physicist uncle, Martin, and the Stuyvesant family has longstanding ties to Wardenclyffe Tower-Nikola Tesla's experimental project for transmitting energy and information wirelessly across vast distances.
Could Martin have unlocked the secret of sending an image backward through time, using Tesla's tower to receive it?
Sean and Lisette are not the only ones seeking the answer. Pursuing them is Dominus, a ruthless clandestine brotherhood descended from Nazi loyalists. Its members intend to send advanced military knowledge-including the secrets of nuclear weapons-back to the Third Reich, reversing its defeat and reshaping the modern world under Nazi domination.
As buried secrets and cutting-edge physics draw them deeper into danger, Sean and Lisette race across continents to uncover the truth before Dominus can seize it. The greatest discovery in human history could erase the world they know.
