Circumstance brings her and a human named Lawrence Casey together, and plunges them into Earth's past to escape a band of mercenaries from her side of the universe sent to deliver her to her father's enemies. The time is eighteen seventy-five. The place is Wyoming. Our time travelers land in the middle of a range war between the mountain and valley ranchers. Taking sides sets in motion the future events that lead to the destruction of a third of Earth's population. Help is on the way with the knowledge that could restore Earth's timeline. There is a chance to fix it if they can avoid capture by the mercenaries or death at the hands of the valley ranchers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Booksurge Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45497212534935,"sku":"9781419673900","price":1174.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781419673900.webp?v=1767447900","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-encounter-9781419673900","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
