Three stories of human women finding love among their alien Ragoru triads, set in a dystopian version of Earth. This box set includes: Red, White, and Huntress.

Clare incontra Henry per la prima volta quando ha sei anni e lui le appare come un adulto di trentasei nel prato di casa. Henry DeTamble è il primo uomo affetto da cronoalterazione, uno strano disturbo per cui, a trentasei anni, comincia a viaggiare nel tempo. A volte sparisce per ritrovarsi catapultato nel suo passato o nel suo futuro. È così che incontra quella bambina destinata a diventare sua moglie quando di fatto l'ha già sposata, o che conosce sua figlia prima ancora che sia nata.

There were certain truths everyone knew. Never wear red or any other bright color. Make as little sound as possible if one had to be outside the protection of the sanctuary settlements. And never, ever, go out in the wild places alone. The Ragoru, an alien species set down to live among them, dwell within the forests and everyone knows that they crave all things red. Arie’s life has always been one of playing by the rules. She doesn’t draw attention to herself. She doesn’t leave her home without her hood that conceals her bright red hair.

Heidi was raised to be a huntress ever since the Order took her off the streets and trained her in the deadly arts. Foremost among her peers, she was chosen by the Master to be his assassin. She never imagined that she would fall until the day she went against his will and saved his stepdaughter by helping her to escape from his formidable mansion. It made her a target and she became the hunted. They nearly killed her.
