Jaida is an Archivist, one of many immortal recorders who document pivotal moments for the Fates. For eight thousand years, she’s lived alone, never interfering. Until the night her mother dies and Jaida learns the truth: every Archivist has a Guardian bound to protect them through every lifetime. And hers just took a bullet meant for her.
Now, archivists are being systematically hunted. Across the world, immortal recorders are dying their final deaths. Jaida’s only protection is Ethan, a shattered Guardian still reeling from his own Archivist’s death. He’s paranoid, grieving, and convinced he’ll fail her too. But as they run through South Western Australia, Jaida begins teaching Ethan to experience the world as she does; to feel the history in every touch, every breath.
