Book description
The year is 1643. Roberto, a young nobleman, survives war, the Bastille, exile and shipwreck as he voyages to a Pacific island straddling the date meridian. There he waits now, on the mysteriously deserted Daphne, separeted by treacherous rewfs from the island beyond: the island of the day before. If he could read it, time – and his misfortunes – might be reversed. But first he must learn to swim.
