Paige Bishop, a teenage cross between Lara Croft and Marie Curie, is preparing to launch herself into another space-time dimension. She's understandably reticent, the first person to test her father's invention, imploded on site. The gruesome failure led scientists to conclude that only younger biological tissue could survive the procedure.
Paige, determined to save her dying father's program, volunteers herself for the mission. With so much on the line, it's no longer enough to prove that time travel is possible. Paige is tasked with tracking down her intellectual icon, the enigmatic Nikola Tesla, and acquiring his research on clean energy, a feat that could save future generations from the threat of Climate Change.
Turns out New York City circa 1906 is a lot more dangerous than you'd think. It's a nasty shock for a modern girl who never leaves the house without a cell phone. As Paige navigates her way around her low-tech surroundings, she stumbles in to the lives of rich industrialists, conniving thieves, and murderous gangs. Will her twenty-first century know-how and physical stamina be enough to get her through?
Join Paige on her roller coaster adventure and meet the colorful characters that are still impacting our lives today. In this fast-paced novel, Erin Meadows weaves historical fact with exciting fiction and proves that female protagonists can be smart, strong, and still so endearing that you'll want to know what happens next.
