R.M. McLeod
- Henry
- Harrison
- is
- twelve-years-old
- and
- something
- of
- a
- minor
- tearaway.

- is
- also,
- quite
- incorrectly,
- the
- prime
- suspect
- of
- the
- armed
- robbery
- of
- a
- market
- trader
- and,
- as
- the
- novel
- begins,
- on
- the
- run
- from
- the
- law.Anxious
- to
- clear
- his
- name,
- he
- finds
- midnight
- sanctuary,
- illegally,
- in
- the
- home
- of
- a
- retired
- professor
- of
- physics,
- but
- rather
- than
- immediately
- hand
- him
- over
- to
- the
- police,
- the
- professor
- listens
- to
- his
- trespasser's
- tale
- with
- some
- sympathy
- and
- even
- offers
- to
- help
- Henry
- clear
- his
- name.
- This
- he
- does
- by
- allowing
- him
- to
- use
- his
- newest,
- most
- secret
- and
- prized
- invention
- –
- the
- ability
- to
- travel
- in
- time.What
- follows
- is
- a
- suspense
- filled
- journey
- through
- time
- and
- space
- as
- when
- the
- kindly
- professor
- is
- kidnapped
- by
- terrorists
- Henry
- joins
- forces
- with
- the
- old
- man's
- grandson
- in
- a
- desperate
- bid
- to
- rescue him.
