About This Book
THIRTEEN-YEAR-OLDS JONAH AND CHIP are reeling from the news that they're both missing children from history, kidnapped from their proper time period, when JB, a time purist, zaps Chip and Alex, another boy, back in time. Determined not to lose their friends, Jonah and his sister grab Chip's arms, and they also end up in the fifteenth century.
Chip's true identity is Edward V, king of England, and Alex is his younger brother, Richard, Duke of York. It's good to be king—until Chip discovers that his uncle, Richard of Gloucester, plans to kill them and seize the throne for himself. If the kids can "fix time," JB will allow them to return. But how can they gel' home safely when history claims that Chip and Alex were murder/ed.
In a riveting novel that climaxes on the battlefield at Bosworth, readers are sent to an unforgettable moment in history and the adventure of a lifetime.
