Chronicles of a Time Thief

On a rainy Sunday in the West Village, Marie Aiello sits with her cat Cosette, a glass of single malt, and the dream she has chased for years: to travel back in time. Then the voice in her head speaks more clearly than ever before, and in a fog-wrapped library it finally takes the shape of a man.

He is Bael, a King among daemons, and he is offering her the chance of a lifetime. She can go back to London in 1964 with the songs of one famous rock band, and sell those songs back to the band.

In London Marie meets three others who have made similar bargains with Bael. Bound by the same love/hate relationship with their daemon patron, they form a bond unlike any other. They all believe they were contracted for fame. They will soon learn that Bael has other plans for their future.
