A life measured against the clock

Seventeen-year-old Parvin Blackwater believes she has only a year to live, a limit marked by the Clock beside her bed. Her attempt to help Radicals facing the government’s justice system leads to her being cast through the Wall, described as her people’s death sentence. The story then widens beyond Parvin’s immediate struggle, connecting questions about the world and eternity with the possibility of change for her people. Christian science fiction and a government-controlled justice system shape the novel’s speculative setting. This is the first volume in the three-book Out of Time series.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in young adult science fiction
  • Readers seeking fiction with Christian religious themes
  • Readers interested in stories about time limits, justice, and a speculative society

Book overview

How would you live if you knew the day you'd die?

Parvin Blackwater believes she has wasted her life. At only seventeen, she has one year left according to the Clock by her bedside. In a last-ditch effort to make a difference, she tries to rescue Radicals from the government's crooked justice system.

But when the authorities find out about her illegal activity, they cast her through the Wall -- her people's death sentence. What she finds on the other side about the world, about eternity, and about herself changes Parvin forever and might just save her people. But her clock is running out.

Volume 1 of 3 in the "Out of Time" Series.
