Lam, Sunday Times-bestselling co-author of Seven Devils 'The Wang family possesses a gift, the power to travel through time. But rather than bringing happiness, it often tears them apart. After their parents depart for another era, young Tommy and Eva must fend for themselves. Tommy falls in love – but how long can you live in the past? This poignant tale sweeps across three generations of a British-Chinese family.' -- Woman's Own 'Just like how the original title is a song, Pim Wangtechawat's debut reads like a poem… Time-travelling is used effectively here, as it helps explore the concept of the generational impact of choices in the book.' -- United by Pop
