30th December 1852: After an unhappy Christmas, Marian Evans returns to London. Today will mark the first day of a bitter feud between Marian and her brother, Isaac. Indeed, the rift between them will become so great that Marian becomes trapped into an endless repeating-cycle in which she keeps returning to this moment, as many "alternate" futures are played out. In an "alternate" time-line, Marian Evans resigns her job as Editor of the Westminster Review in 1851. This version of history will remember Marian as a translator, journalist and philosopher - but not as novelist. She will disappear into obscurity following the publication of the second novel by Warwickshire writer, Joseph Liggins. Marian next finds herself on a railway platform at Nuneaton Station, some time in the early twenty first century of this "alternate" world. Here she befriends a young man whom claims he will have a major influence upon the direction of her life in the years to come.
