"The past is closer than you think—and far more dangerous than you imagine."

In the near future, historian Kivrin Engle travels back to 14th-century England, determined to experience the past firsthand. But when an unforeseen crisis traps her in an era ravaged by disease and fear, Kivrin finds herself battling for survival in a world both foreign and heartbreakingly human.

Seamlessly blending historical detail with gripping suspense, Doomsday Book is a powerful exploration of resilience, faith, and the enduring connections that bridge time itself.
