Book description
Liam O'Connor should have died at sea in 1912.
Maddy Carter should have died on a plane in 2010.
Sal Vikram should have died in a fire in 2026.
But all three have been given a second chance - to work for an
agency that no one knows exists. Its purpose: to prevent time travel
destroying history . . .
Relocated to Victorian London, the TimeRiders joy-ride back to 1666
to witness the Great Fire of London. In the ensuing chaos, Liam and
their newest recruit, Rashim, find themselves trapped between the fire
and the Thames. They escape onboard a river boat, only to be
confronted by an unscrupulous captain with his heart set on treasures
of the high seas . . .
Back in 1888, Maddy and the rest of the team are frantically trying
to track them down. But with limited resources at their new base, can
Liam and Rashim survive the bloodthirsty and barbaric age of piracy
long enough to be rescued?
