Produktbeschreibung
When 15 year old Ryn and his younger sister Aeden find themselves in Paris, France due to the murder of a distant relative, they cannot resist the temptation to travel back in time to find the killer. Although they think they have mastered Snell's Law of Refraction and a way to use light for time travel, something goes terribly wrong. The pair finds themselves in 18th century Paris a day before the storming of the Bastille and the start of the French Revolution. To make matters worse, they are lost in the underground sewers and their only hope of survival rests with a member of a secret society of revolutionaries who is bent on killing the aristocracy. When Ryn and Aeden learn that his next victim is their ancestor, who has sought refuge in the Bastille, they are forced to conceal their identities and find a way into that fortress to rescue the gentleman. With a bloodthirsty mob of angry citizens only hours away, Ryn and Aeden must rely on their instincts and skill to escape a frightening fate. Will time be their ally or their enemy?
Autorenporträt
New York native Ann I. Goldfarb spent most of her life in education, first as a classroom teacher and later as a middle school principal and professional staff developer. Writing has always been an integral part of her world. For the past decade, she has written non-fiction for Madavor Media/Jones Publishing, but her real passion is writing mystery-suspense-adventure for young adult audiences. Time travel, the vehicle she embraces, is her hook into historical fiction. Her first novel, THE FACE OUT OF TIME, received a literary award from Arizona Authors Association in 2011 and her novel, THE LAST TAG, was a finalist in the 2012 New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards. In addition, she has received excellent national reviews (KIRKUS REVIEWS) for THE LAST TAG and LIGHT RIDERS AND THE MORENCI MINE MURDER. Upon learning that snow was optional, she and her family moved to Arizona, where they currently reside near the foothills of the White Tank Mountains.
