Applied quantum physicist Akari Sato is working late at Los Alamos National Laboratory one night when she hears commotion from her lab. She finds intruders dressed in dated clothing rifling through her research, but when she calls security, the spies flee through a portal in space-time which engulfs Akari and transports her back in time.

Akari finds herself in 1944, where she is immediately arrested as a spy and taken to the Santa Fe Japanese internment camp. There she faces xenophobic, racial, and misogynistic abuse she’s never experienced before … and also meets her great grandfather.

If Akari wants to find a way home—and make sure there is a home to return to—she must convince the Americans that, not only is she not a spy, but that she’s time-traveled from the future. And if they don’t set her free, the Nazis may get their hands on nuclear secrets from the future which could change not only the outcome of the war, but the fate of humankind.
