Now Breen, the genius who had worked his entire life to create a bridge to eternity, was dying.

Her grasp of this time, this place, and this body are tenuous, held in place by, of all things, her love of food. Who is Vaughna, or maybe, what is Vaughna?
Death Bird Song—Who was this spy with over 70-years of experience, yet barely looked 20? Was sheRegina Thompson, the "daughter" of Svetmila and James Venn Thompson, WWII OSS operatives, or was she Svetmila herself, forever young?
