Through the intertwined biographies of four key figures, the narrative brings this period of change to life: Henry Tufnell, a landowning civil servant and politician; Anne Wilmot, Henry’s first wife, who played a pivotal role in developing the Tufnell Park Estate; Tom Murphy, an Irish immigrant and bricklayer who fled the Great Famine (1845–1852) and became a contractor overseeing the construction of terrace housing in Tufnell Park; and Kathleen Kean, a domestic servant from rural Ireland, who became Tom’s betrothed and later his wife.

As time moves on, they also learn that they were all born at the same time, on the same night, during The Culmination of the Pleiades Constellation.
What does that mean? In ancient times the Culmination of the Pleiades Constellation meant a time to give thanks for the fading light, for all that has gone before, by November 21, fruits are stored away for the winter.
All of the members of ‘Eternity’ Jag, Eres, Al Akio, and Crys were brought together not just to give thanks for the fading light but to be a bright light for humanity at a time when the world truly needs it to move forward.

Footprints in the Snow
“What’s that sound?” Katrina gasped, snatching at her friend’s sleeve.“Oh, nothing really,” Mack answered casually. “Just a bird.”But the animal that jumped out in front of them on the path was definitely not a bird – it was a mountain lion! Mack and Katrina stared at it in bewilderment, vaguely wondering what was going to happen next. The children had already been startled out of their wits, so when the creature stepped closer, snarling and growling ferociously, they just turned and hastily scurried away.As he stumbled blindly along, Mack felt a warm spurt of blood suddenly trickling down his arm, but he ignored it in the great hope of reaching home safely before the mountain lion could make another swipe at one of them. Mack expected the vicious animal to attack him from behind at any given moment. Then he became aware that the noise had faded slightly…Could the mountain lion be stalking them silently? Risking a momentary glance over his shoulder, what the frantic boy saw only made him run even faster than ever – the wild animal was still giving chase!
