“The only way out is through.”
Nicholas' grandfather is the head of a powerful Traveling family and Etta's mother has hidden something that he wants back. He sent his granddaughter Sophia to bring Etta to him and in exchange for Etta locating the object, which upon delivery he will return her mother to her. Etta and Nicholas set out through time to find the object using the clues Etta's mother put in a letter to her, but they find more than what they are looking for.
This book starts out a little slow, but once Etta and Nicholas begin their adventures, the story becomes rather engaging and you wonder just how could things possibly work out. We will just have to find in the next book, Wayfarer.
