If you had one chance to change history...
Where would you go? What would you do?
WHO WOULD YOU KILL?
It’s the 1st of June 1914 and Hugh Stanton, ex-soldier and celebrated adventurer is quite literally
the loneliest man on earth.
No one he has ever
known or loved has been born yet.
Perhaps now they never will be.
Stanton knows that a great and terrible war is
coming. A collective suicidal madness that will destroy European civilization and bring
misery to millions
in the century to come. He
knows this because, for him, that century is already
history.
Somehow he must change that history. He must
prevent the war. A war
that will begin with a single bullet. But can a single
bullet truly corrupt
an entire century?
And, if so, could another
single bullet save it?
