El destino inevitable de Arlène Revêtruite

William B. Huges, a very young scientist with revolutionary ideas, flees England after having stolen from Queen Victoria of England an unusual thirteen-hour clock capable of controlling time. In a lost town in the French Pyrenees, the rebel Arlène Revêtruite receives a Red Letter. If she does not accept the destiny written in the letter, misfortune will fall on her family... but she will not allow anyone to define her path. While Arlène will have to face the rejection of her community, William will seek refuge in the house of a book dealer who will change everything. What they do not know is that their destinies are closely related and that a mysterious wagon will expose all their secrets.
