Florence Elswood is renowned for being old-fashioned. But no one understands the reasoning behind this 'life-long' obsession and as of late, neither does Florence. So when she begins to see the past lives of anyone she touches, Florence is thrown into a world of confusion and thrust into a century-long battle between the future and the past. Florence soon discovers that the life she leads is a lie and that her life had really started long before the universe had exploded into existence.
