Sequel to Far and Away: An Ill-Fated Journey

He made a promise. . . Now it's time to keep it.

The year is 1947.

Joseph de Sauveterre promises a dying man that he will take care of his sister Rebecca and his nephew Liam. Leaving England and all his loved ones behind, he travels to the United States of America to keep that promise. His destination: a small farm in Gallagher, Virginia.

Joseph carries around a burden passed down from his mother: an antique pocket watch that's not as it seems. Like his mother, the timekeeper's hands tick in perfect harmony with his heart. And like his mother, he hears whispers from departed loved ones. He made a solemn promise to her, vowing that he would solve the mystery, no matter the cost. Fortunately, he's not alone.

Captivated by the dashing Englishman, Rebecca finds herself falling for him. When he tells her about the mysterious watch, she can't help but be skeptical. Putting all her doubts aside, she decides to help him, becoming a vital part of his mission to honor his promise.

It's only a matter of time before the pocket watch fractures Joseph's mind. With the help of his family, Rebecca, Liam, and an unexpected ally, will he successfully solve the mystery before it's too late, or will his pursuit ultimately end in his death?
