About this audiobook

A flash of lightning, quivering ground, and, instead of her grandparents' farm, Polly sees mist and jagged mountains -- and coming toward her, a group of young men carrying spears.

Why has a time gate opened and dropped Polly into a world that existed 3,000 years ago? Will she be able to get back to the present before the time gate closes -- and leaves her to face a group of people who believe in human sacrifice?

This Commemorative Edition includes a new introduction by the Author.

Meh.... It wasn't what I'd call a great story. Going back in time only changed one facet of the story which was pretty insignificant. Zachary isn't even fully healed. The story felt pointless.
