For as long as Alex Wayfare can remember, she has had visions of the past. Vivid visions that make her feel like she's really on a ship bound for America, or riding the original Ferris wheel at the World's Fair. It isn't until she meets Porter, a stranger who knows more than should be possible about her, that she learns the truth; her visions aren't really visions. Alex is a Descender -- capable of traveling back in time to her past lives. But the more she descends, the more it becomes apparent that someone doesn't want Alex to travel again. And they will stop at nothing to make this life, her fifty-seventh, her last.

In Edwardian London, a girl dreams of being an artist, despite her family's disapproval. Welcome to the world of the fabulously wealthy in London, 1909, where dresses and houses are overwhelmingly opulent, social class means everything, and women are taught to be nothing more than wives and mothers. Into this world comes seventeen-year-old Victoria Darling, who wants only to be an artist—a nearly impossible dream for a girl. After Vicky poses nude for her illicit art class, she is expelled from her French finishing school. Shamed and scandalized, her parents try to marry her off to the wealthy Edmund Carrick-Humphrey. But Vicky has other things on her mind: her clandestine application to the Royal College of Art; her participation in the suffragette movement; and her growing attraction to a working-class boy who may be her muse—or may be the love of her life. As the world of debutante balls, corsets, and high society obligations closes in around her, Vicky must figure out: just how much is she willing to sacrifice to pursue her dreams?
