"The Other Valley" is a novel by Scott Alexander Howard, described as a "mind-bending take on time travel". The story centers on Odile Ozanne, a sixteen-year-old girl living in an isolated town bordered by its own past and future. The town is structured with one valley being twenty years ahead in time and another twenty years behind. The only permitted border crossings are for "mourning tours," allowing viewings of the dead in towns where they are still alive.
