In the time machine, by HG Wells we were already making an initiatory journey through the past and future years of our civilization. And in a more homely reflection, the recent Ministry of Time, or his literary work Time is what it is, we are offered a fanciful mystery plot through time.
This book contributes much and good to this inexhaustible trend, extended from the first great scientific fantasy writers such as Wells himself, Asimov or Jules Verne himself. With an overwhelming pace, we are entering a plot that masterfully links aspects of the history of the world. It is not that it is a journey in time, rather it would be an approach to incredible aspects of history.
For Karen, an intelligence agent, history is her case. She better than anyone knows how to interpret why what happens happens, what has brought us here and what can await us in the future. Karen is aware of the destabilizing elements of the world, those who try to adjust evolution to their darkest interest.
When Karen is not involved in a larger investigation, she is dedicated to investigating thefts of historical pieces. This dedication is what ends up uniting her with Benjamin Hood, an expert at the British Museum, a mischievous and disconcerting guy who wanders between his passion for art and history and his messy personal life.
Once united by force, Karen and Benjamin embark on the adventure of deciphering a great enigma after which they will not walk alone. Adventures, looming dangers and fast-paced action. A spectacular cocktail as a leisure reading that at the same time cultivates its sophisticated plot, where the high degree of knowledge of our entire history is denoted.
The world is transformed into a great puzzle where the most remote centuries and modernity become intricate pieces whose fit can be wonderful.
