Jonah and his sister Katherine have been sent back in time with the chance to save the lives of two of the stolen children, Chip and Alex. Who are these two in history? The missing boy princes from the Tower of London, presumably murdered by King Edward IV. While the siblings seem to do everything wrong and the princes’ lives come into deeper danger, they are the only hope.
I love how Haddix explains her use and rules of time travel without becoming so obscure that it just sounds like gobbledygook. Her adventures make sense, as well as having healthy doses of adventure and danger. Now I am hoping that the sequels remain just as much fun to read as #1 and #2.
