But Liana faces danger as she travels back through time with Coppernob and new friend Joe where problems have to be solved and mysteries unravelled.

Will the friends manage to get back to their own time and can Coppernob’s old driver help them?

Author Denny has a background in education and psychology, and handles many issues children have to face in her story for ages seven-plus – although the themes running through the storyline will enchant adults too.
