Another time shift is on the horizon, and this time, it\u2019s one that reflects Saul\u2019s twisted vision.<br \/>\nWhen the shift hits, it plunges the United States into a modern dark age where superstition trumps science and seventeenth-century witch hunts are no longer a thing of the past. But Saul has added a new hurdle to this insane reality: he\u2019s hunting the Sisters of Prudence.<br \/>\nClones of Katherine\u2019s daughter, the Sisters are pawns to be sacrificed on Saul\u2019s time chessboard\u2014unless the team can track him down at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival and erase him first. Saul is calling the shots, so he\u2019s ahead of them every step of the way. With the clock ticking, this could be the endgame for CHRONOS and, if they fail, for reality itself.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2021-11-19T06:00:00+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"\\nHappy Friday!
