Chasing eternity / by Noël, Alyson,author.;
I'm about to break one of the biggest rules of all. But I need to find my dad. And if that means going back to New York City in 1998 to find him -- before I'm even born -- then that's what I have to do. Because I need someone I trust to teach me what it means to be a Timekeeper. Now I'm in the land of post-grunge, low-rise jeans, baby doll tees, chunky boots ... and risking my own existence in the process. Awesome. This is no ordinary trip. Just about anything can go wrong, and if I get found out, I'll lose not only my home and school ... but Braxton, too. Because there might not be enough forgiveness in the world for what I've done -- and what I am about to do. Because the secrets are more terrible than I thought. The reality is even more horrifying. And I'll do whatever it takes to find out the truth about Gray Wolf Academy, the strange billionaire who runs it, and not only why he's so invested in traveling -- or "Tripping" -- through time, but what his real plans are. And time's almost up.

"A billionaire is primed to announce the succession plan for his company to his family at a lavish reunion, but at least one person won't make it through the week alive ... Most family reunions end in tears. This one will end in murder. Meet the Agarwals, who have gathered on a private, luxury island off the west coast of Scotland for a much-anticipated family reunion: Raj, the patriarch and a business tycoon, is about to announce to his wife and three surviving children the succession plan for his billion-dollar Delhi-based company. Shalini, the fragile matriarch and protector, is ready to have her husband to herself after years of sacrifice to the family business. Myra, the golden child, owner of the island, and host of the reunion, is, unbeknownst to her family, on the brink of bankruptcy. Aseem, the son and supposed heir, is torn between his love for his wife and duty to his family. Aisha, the youngest, a party girl whose antics are legendary, can't pass up an opportunity to wreak chaos. And then there's Zoe, Aseem's wife, the outsider whose #Instaperfect life is built on a foundation of lies. They've all got secrets that they would die to protect. Who will survive this high-stakes reunion, and who will become a victim of their own greed? One thing is certain: this family gathering will shatter more than just their illusions of unity"--
