Two hundred years after he was about to die on a Napoleonic battlefield, Lord Nicholas Falcott wakes up in twenty-first-century London. The Guild, a secretive fraternity of time travelers, informs him that there is no return. But Nick yearns for the beautiful Julia Percy, who remains in 1815. As fate and the fraying fabric of time draw Nick and Julia together once again, the lovers must match wits and gamble their hearts against the rules of time itself. Rich in romance and historical detail, Bee Ridgway's debut is a thrilling, fast-paced narrative evocative of Deborah Harkness's time-bending bestsellers.
Industry Reviews
"In her stellar debut, Ridgway manages the permutations of the time-travel trope with originality and aplomb." - "Booklist" "A highly entertaining romp; [Ridgway's] historical details are accurate, and the characters are believable. Fans of Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series should enjoy this time-traveling romantic adventure, which may also attract readers who like historical fiction with a twist." -"Library Journal" "Ridgway offers a well-crafted blend of science fiction, romance, mystery, and historical fiction." - "Publishers Weekly" "A compelling race through time in a historical world turned upside down--the Regency as you've never seen it before. Take one nobleman and one gently born lady; add time travel, intrigue, a vast conspiracy, and a wicked way with words; shake; and serve." -Lauren Willig, author of The Pink Carnation series "While on its shining surface "The River of No Return" is a fantastical time traveling page turner, it is also a novel that takes on complex issues of culture and nationalism and how or memories form us. And it is a riveting love story to boot. Bee Ridgway is a treasure and her debut is a triumph." -Jennifer Gilmore, author of "Golden Country" and "Something Red"
