Stay away from the mangroves. You won't find your way home.
When Tiaris is flung back in time, while visiting a mangrove swamp after moving to Panama, she must learn to survive. Trapped in 1906 during the building of the canal, she finds her footing with the help of a resourceful Barbadian labourer and a fearless Panamanian herbalist. Amid racial segregation and gender roles that clash with her modern beliefs, Tiaris discovers the wonders of the tropics and the stories of those who built the canal. But danger looms. Thwarted at every turn by a ruthless and embittered foreman, the trio must decipher the meaning of a century-old legend that holds the key to Tiaris's return home. Will they unravel its secrets in time?
If you love historical fiction and fantasy-no matter your age-don't miss this thrilling tale of adventure and self-discovery in a race against time.
