In 1916, Emma Oโ€™Neill is frozen in time. After sampling an experimental polio vaccine brewed on a remote island off St. Augustine, Florida, she and her family stop agingโ€”as do the Ryans, her familyโ€™s business partners. In a way, this suits Emma fine because sheโ€™s in love with Charlie Ryan. Being seventeen forever with him is a dream. But soon a group of religious fanatics, the Church of Light, takes note. Drinking the elixir has made the Oโ€™Neills and Ryans impervious to aging, but not to murderโ€”Emma and Charlie are the only ones who escape with their lives.

On the run, Emma is tragically separated from Charlie. For the next hundred years, she plays a cat-and-mouse game with the founding members of the Church of Light and their descendants. Over the years, a series of murdersโ€”whose victims all bear more than a passing resemblance to herโ€”indicate that her enemies are closing in. Yet as the danger grows, so does Emmaโ€™s hope for finding the boy sheโ€™s certain is still out there . . .
