Intersections A Queens Story Book One — Frederick Alimonti

Two middle-schoolers, Richie and Samantha, find themselves invited by their eccentric neighbor into a dimension of enchanted artifacts, only to find themselves called to a secret mission into the past to save the soul of the very neighbor who invited them in the first place. Their travels will take them back in time, including into the jungles of Vietnam, where a message from a lost son can bring peace to the father he left behind. Join them and their friends as they journey into the magical Intersection, deal with local bullies, and learn that friendship is perhaps the greatest magic of all.
