It's 1976 and twelve-year-old Timothy Deckel has a problem. His new pen pal, Mabel, is in serious trouble and desperately needs his help. The only problem is that Mabel lives eighty years in the past. His only means of communicating with her is by letter through his newly acquired antique mail desk. Partnering with his best friend, Will, they set out to assist Mabel in any way they can. They soon discover that the dangers she faces in her time may not have been fully resolved. As the boys aid Mabel to help uncover clues to the perils surrounding her, they quickly find themselves in similar danger. While the past races to meet the future, an eighty-year-old unsolved mystery begins to unfold, one in which Mabel's outcome directly affects their very survival.
The Desk is a fast-paced thriller that intricately weaves the past and the present into an unforgettable rollercoaster ride of adventure.
