Originally published in 1985, this classic science fiction novel from
Glen Cook--best known for his series The Black Company--is equal parts
spy thriller, murder mystery, and time-travel mind-bender.
May 1975. St. Louis. In a snow-swept street, a cop finds the body of a
man who died fifty years ago. It's still warm. July 1866, Lidice,
Bohemia: A teenage girl calmly watches her parents die as another being
takes control of her body. August 2058, Prague: Three political rebels
flee in to the past, taking with them a terrible secret. As past,
present, and future collide, one man holds the key to the puzzle. And if
he doesn't fit it together, the world he knows will fall to pieces. It's
just A Matter of Time!
