From international bestselling author Alyson Richman comes a poignant, beautifully written novel about the redeeming power of love.
Two women from different worlds, joined by the love of a child displaced by war, discover friendship and healing as their lives intersect with a mysterious wounded Vietnam vet named Jack.

The Time Keepers interweaves the journeys of wonderfully diverse characters that will grip, fill, and break your heart—only to bring them together with the care and precision of an expert watchmaker, one piece at a time. Inspired by a true story of a Vietnamese refugee who entrusted the dramatic story of her escape from Vietnam to the author and also that of a wounded veteran, Richman sheds light on the personal stories of those whose lives were forever impacted by the devastation of war.
