Years earlier, a father's secret invention was driven by a desperate, personal hope: to go back in time and somehow undo the collapse of his marriage and the family they once had. But his initial experiments in another timeline yielded no clues, leaving a fractured family situation completely unchanged. It was during those earlier years that the son discovered an old diary hidden away in an attic--an unexpected discovery that triggered a mysterious presence, guiding him on a parallel journey where his true beginnings and a shared destiny awaited. Emerging from his father's machine in London, the son steps into an empire he has no memory of building. The year is 2024. Seventeen years have vanished. Stripped of his immediate memories, he is left to piece together the fragments of a lifetime he cannot remember living--unaware that the answers he once sought are locked within the history of his youth.
