Was she lucky to go there...or sentenced to a bleak existence that would fade into history, forgotten like the decay of yesterday? Eva Abrams is thrown into the past to a time of violence and chaos- revealing the hidden ugliness of war, allowing her eyes to see things she never thought they would. But she is unable to escape mainland Europe before the invasion, and her greatest fear materializes when she witnesses the arrival of the German army in the town square. All she wants is to return home to her mundane life, but she doesn't know if that will ever happen now. She stumbles into an unexpected friendship with the person she should keep firmly at a distance, one that opens her mind to the understanding that people are not always as they seem-good or bad, which gives rise to the events that put everything else into motion. Her life takes a drastic turn when the Germans become suspicious, putting her in unimaginable danger and leaving the path in front of her treacherous and murky at best. Eva is now tangled in the grim realities imposed by war as the walls close in. She must choose between the life she knew and the past she now feels drawn to.
