When Adam Eddington, a gifted marine biology student, makes the acquaintance of blond and beautiful Kali Cutter at Kennedy International Airport on his way to Portugal to spend the summer working for the renowned scientist Dr. O'Keefe, he has no idea that this seemingly chance meeting will set into motion a chain of events he will be unable to stop.



Caught between Kali's seductive wiles and the trusting adoration of Dr. O'Keefe's daughter, Poly, Adam finds himself enmeshed in a deadly power struggle between two groups of people, only one of which can have right on its side. As the ddanger escalates, Adam must make a decision that could affect the entire world--which side is he on?

Great story, not a big fan of the ending though - just didn't seem like enough closure. Narrator did a great job.

This book kept me engaged from the beginning to the end. Felt deeply connected to the characters and loved the visual descriptions of the different places described. I’ve just finished the Time Quintet — this book is quite different and in some ways my favorite by L’Engle so far. Now onto the next book in the series!

It started with the wrinkle in time, but Ive found that there is never a disappointment in Madeline L’engles writing. I wish she was still alive. Love would to go visit her and talk life.

L’engle is timeless
