The Discovery of the Century - A Short Story #957675

Istanbul, 1909. A secret society. A dragon's egg. And a woman who crossed time to steal them both.
For fans of time travel fantasy, historical fiction thrillers, and strong female protagonists — a pulse-racing adventure set in the shadow of Hagia Sophia.
When a covert organization known as the Ameshty unveils what they're calling the discovery of the century, operative Ayşe will do whatever it takes to get inside their gala — forge an identity, infiltrate a mansion, pick up a servant's uniform, and face down armed men with nothing but nerve and a pistol. What she finds hidden in a secret garden changes everything she thought she knew about the world.
A golden egg. Ancient. Alive. And about to hatch.
But the Ameshty have operated for three centuries without consequence, and they are not about to let one woman — however resourceful, however dangerous — walk away with their prize. Especially not when her exasperated husband has just arrived from the future with backup, poor period clothing, and very strong opinions about timeline contamination.
The Discovery of the Century blends Ottoman Empire historical fiction, fantasy adventure, secret society intrigue, and time travel romance into a breathtaking opening chapter of a saga that spans centuries.
Perfect for readers who loved Outlander, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, and The Thursday Murder Club.
