Verity is tired of the D.C. grind. Starved for purpose, Verity jumps at an unimaginable opportunity offered by her brilliant roommate from college—pack up your life, move cross-country, and do meaningful work alongside your idol and recent time traveler from 1871, Ada Lovelace. Benevolent billionaire-funded Indra Group has invented time travel. The applications and implications are infinite, and the breakthroughs are coming fast; but when the money is flowing and the ethos is “can do,” will anyone bother to ask whether they should? Indra Group is unlike any place Verity has worked before. Filled with smart, motivated people who are untethered by the bonds of funding and bureaucracy, Indra exists in shades of gray. At first, Verity thrives in the ambiguity— but, with no external oversight, the environment is dry kindling waiting for a match. Will Indra Group’s potential fall victim to internal feuds and petty jealousies magnified by a mosaic of moral questions and the potential to unravel time as we know it? A smart take on workplace dramedy fiction, The Time Traveler’s Book Club is like an episode of The West Wing with better weather, a plot driven by smart snarky women, and a time machine. The first in a series, The Time Traveler’s Book Club is for people who love a little chew in their escapist fiction.
