The Book of Fathers - Paperback

by Miklos Vamos (Author), Peter Sherwood (Translator)

In 1705, Kornell Csillag's grandfather happens across a gold watch--a magical watch that brings the gift of clairvoyance to the family's first-born sons. This gift offers the ability to look into the future or back into history--for some it is a blessing, for others a curse.
