An International Bestselling Author
Film to Star Benedict Cumberbatch
Tom Hazard has a dangerous secret. He may look like an ordinary 41-year-old, but he's been alive for centuries, performing with Shakespeare, exploring the high seas with Captain Cook, and sharing cocktails with Fitzgerald. Now, he just wants an ordinary life. How to Stop Time tells a love story across the ages, and for the ages, about a man lost in time, the woman who could save him, and the lifetimes it can take to learn how to live.
