daughter are accused of the crime. The evidence is ironclad. They will be convicted. And so to
ensure his daughter goes free Sam does what he must: he confesses. But in the future
murderers aren't sent to prison. Thanks to a machine Sam helped invent the world's worst

of the time of the dinosaurs - where they must live out their lives alone in exile from the
human race. Sam accepts his fate. But his daughter doesn't. Adeline Anderson has already lost
her mother to a deadly unfair disease. She can't bear to lose her father as well. So she sets
out on a quest to prove him innocent. And to get him back. People around her insist that both
are impossible tasks. But Adeline doesn't give up. She only works harder. She soon learns that
impossible tasks are her specialty. And that she is made of tougher stuff than she ever
imagined. As she peels back the layers of the mystery that tore her father from this world
Adeline finds more questions than answers. Everyone around her is hiding a secret. But which
ones are connected to the murder that exiled her father? That mystery stretches across the past
present and future - and leads to a revelation that will change everything.
