this book took me three weeks to get through 😅

the premise? fascinating. (time travel! “expats” of both time and place, brought from their era to now, with the help of a “bridge” as their guide to adjusting! secrecy in the ministry! moles and weapons and unclear identities! romance! etc!)

the execution? clumsy, tangled, confusing, and slow. 

i was bummed, and kept losing interest, and disappointed this one wasn’t sharper and more tightly told!
