Summary from Goodreads:
The stakes have risen even higher in this third book in the Hourglass series.
The Hourglass is a secret organization focused on the study of manipulating time, and its members — many of them teenagers -have uncanny abilities to make time work for them in mysterious ways. Inherent in these powers is a responsibility to take great care, because altering one small moment can have devastating consequences for the past, present, and future. But some time travelers are not exactly honorable, and sometimes unsavory deals must be struck to maintain order.
With the Infinityglass (central to understanding and harnessing the time gene) at large, the hunt is on to find it before someone else does.
But the Hourglass has an advantage. Lily, who has the ability to locate anything lost, has determined that the Infinityglass isn't an object. It's a person. And the Hourglass must find him or her first. But where do you start searching for the very key to time when every second could be the last?

Thoughts:
The last book for the Hourglass series is finally here! There's a lot of things going on in the previous two books that I found myself sometimes have to go back and read them just to refresh my memory. Several new characters are introduced and yes we finally found out that the Infinityglass is actually girl named Hallie.
The story is told from several POV's including Hallie, Dune and Poe. As expected romance will blossomed between Dune and Hallie which is sweet. And we get to see the whole gang with their individual powers in action against the bad guy which is really the high point for me. Overall this is a fitting finale for the series and a big improvement from book two which is kind of a letdown for me.
Verdict: 4 stars.
