Three Days to Never Summary

Three Days to Never by Tim Powers

Albert Einstein's groundbreaking scientific discoveries made possible the creation of the most terrible weapon the world would ever know. But he made another discovery that he chose to reveal to no one - to keep from human hands a power that dwarfed the atomic bomb.

When twelve-year-old Daphne Marrity takes a film from her recently deceased grandmother's house, neither she nor her father, Frank, realize what they now have in their possession. In an instant they are thrust into the centre of a world-altering conspiracy, drawing the dangerous attentions of both the Israeli secret service and an ancient European cabal of occultists.

Now father and daughter have three days to learn the rules of a terrifying magical chess game in order to escape a fate more profound than death - because the Marritys hold the key to the ultimate destruction of not only what's to come, but what has already been. .

Tim Powers has long been one of my absolutely favourite writers, those whose new books I snatch up as soon as they appear... Narrative sparkle, great dialogue, speculative imagination, and emotional power. * PETER STRAUB *
THREE DAYS TO NEVER contains so many genuine pleasures... Plenty of action, humour and unexpectedly touching human drama. * San Francisco Chronicle *
Historical fact, dazzling flights of imagination, and wonderful suspense. * DEAN KOONTZ *
One of the most original and innovative writers of fantasy currently working. * Washington Post *
