An ancient spell gone wrong.
A legacy of time travel.
The latest unsuspecting heir.
Fifteen-year-old Sophia McAskie can see an object's past just by touching it. She doesn't know why. She can't control it. And she doesn't know she can time travel. Finding out will be an epic adventure...
One day, while cleaning the grandfather clock in her dad's antiques shop, Sophia accidentally sends herself and her brother tumbling into the house of a Victorian gentleman. Before she can figure out what happened, a mysterious time traveller with sinister plans demands their custody, igniting a gruelling chase through unfamiliar times and foreign lands.
Lost and on the run, with no idea how to get home, the siblings win the help of an intrepid local boy in their battle for survival. But in a web of magic and hidden agendas, who can they trust?
When a devious figure tears the siblings apart, Sophia must master her powers if she is ever going to find her brother and return home to safety. If she fails, they'll be trapped in the past forever...
Beyond the Longcase Clock is the first book in the YA fantasy time-travel series Chronicles of the Chiliad. If you like fast-paced adventure, vivid historical settings, and unpredictable magical powers, then you'll love the first instalment in Hayley Patton's compelling new series.
