A heartwarming and hilarious middle grade adventure about taking a chance on friendship while taking on time-stopping casino thieves.
What would you do if you could stop time?
Twelve-year-old Stu is new to Las Vegas, and he's lonely.
His best friend back in Australia has dumped him, and his only friend here is his pet snake.
He wants more friends, but it hurts too much to lose them.
Then Stu runs into a pair of casino thieves with an amazing ability - they can stop time!
But when the whole world freezes in place, Stu keeps moving.
And when Stu discovers he can stop time too, the thieves come up with a criminal plan for him.
Can Stu master his new powers and stop the thieves, while finding the courage to make new friends?
Only time will tell.
