Timeless - The Ohoopee River Anthology

An antique German clock is gifted to a World War II soldier Howard by his best friend Blake just before he dies. Blake's last words to his friend were, "If anything happens to me...the clock!"  The clock was later smuggled out of Germany and sent to Blake's mother for safekeeping. Back home in the States, Howard discovers that the clock has mysteriously disappeared from Blake's mother's home. Obsessed with Blake's dying words, Howard spends years searching for the mysterious clock and finally locates it in an antique store in Savannah, Georgia.
Now in possession of the clock, Howard is stymied, unable to unravel the mystery of why the clock was important to Blake. As the truth about the clock begins to unfold, Howard is peppered with revelations concerning his best friend that chip away at what he knew until the truth finally emerges-a truth that threatens to destroy everything Howard thought he knew about Blake.
