IT WAS ALL IN THE REFRACTION! When 13-year-old Ryn finds himself cleaning out a "hoarder's nest" that belonged to a deceased great, great aunt, he knew the summer was off to an awful start. But what he didn't know was that his "crazy Aunt Zanne" may have used prisms to find a way to travel back in time! It was only when he and his younger sister, Aeden, come across an 80-year-old picture of Ryn that he realizes his aunt may not be so crazy after all. Following the clues she has left for them, Ryn and his sister, Aeden, escape back in time to 1930's Arizona, with Ryn on the Orphan Train from the east and Aeden on a railway car with a mysterious girl. Separated by time and space, the siblings are forced to blend into an unfamiliar culture as they try desperately to find each other. Ryn escapes from the brutal family that "adopts" him only to get caught up with a gang of murderers. His sister is befriended by a streetwise orphan whose values go against everything Aeden was taught.Their only chance for survival rests inside an old mine, but will this be the only clue they cannot find?
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.
