Alice made eye contact with a man as their trains passed in an underground tunnel. She thinks it was her lost brother and now she's determined to find him.

By Nick Perry

While investigating a strange encounter with her missing brother on the London Underground, Alice is contacted by an oddball group of time-travel enthusiasts who are documenting London’s hidden gateways to the past. Late one night, they return with Alice to the "ghost station" where the encounter had taken place, and Alice finds herself transported to a bygone era where she learns an extraordinary secret about her own identity.
