Signal Moon Story

A riveting short story about an impossible connection across two centuries that could determine the fate of peace or war is brought to you by the bestselling author of The Diamond Eye, from the New York Times. In Yorkshire, 1943, Lily Baines, a young debutante worn down by the never-ending war, has abandoned her white gloves for a pair of headphones. Her responsibility is to intercept enemy naval communications and forward them to Bletchley Park for decryption.

One fateful night, she picks up a transmission that breaks all codes - a distress call. An American ship is under heavy fire in the North Atlantic, but there have been no other reports of an attack. The information relayed by the young US officer, Matt Jackson, appears to be all wrong. To Lily's surprise, the contact on the other end of the radio channel insists it is the year 2023.

Despite the eighty-year gap that separates them, Lily and Matt must find a way to aid each other. Matt needs to convince Lily that victory is still possible in the war she is fighting, while Lily must help him prevent a future conflict from erupting. As their bond deepens, they both understand that time is running short for their inexplicable connection.
