As Jonas comes to understand all too well, the universe favors certain outcomes...and Amanda's death is one of them. Guggenheim's novel takes readers on a suspenseful journey, intercutting scenes of Jonas's frantic, present-day search across multiple realities with glimpses from the past of his unfolding romance and eventual marriage.
