Hope and her fellow time-traveling Viators (Into the Dim) visit Gilded Age New York City. Villainous Dr. Carson attempts to trap them in the past by manipulating the era's misogyny and racism to commit Hope and Doug to an asylum. The vivid nineteenth-century setting, with all its beauty and brutality, makes a compelling backdrop for engagingly romantic story lines and thought-provoking considerations of fate.
