"For Kivrin, preparing to travel back in time to study one of the deadliest eras in humanity’s history is as simple as receiving inoculations against the diseases of the fourteenth century and inventing an alibi for a woman traveling alone. For her instructors in the twenty-first century, it means painstaking calculations and careful monitoring of the rendezvous location where Kivrin would be received. But a crisis strangely linking past and future strands Kivrin in a bygone age as her fellows try desperately to rescue her. In this era of superstition and fear, Kivrin — barely of age herself — finds that she has become an unlikely angel of hope during one of history’s darkest hours."
