Young Reader's Choice Award Holly feels rejected. Her cool, remote mother has dumped the thirteen–year–old on an aunt and uncle she barely knows, at a farm in southern England. Holly takes her flute to her aunt and uncle's old barn, and the notes of her instrument set off a mysterious hum from the back of the building. Perhaps she shouldn't have gone to investigate the sounds. Maybe she shouldn't have moved the pile of broken–down farm implements that blocked her path. But how else was she going to get that ancient–looking door open? Besides, somehow Holly can't help herself.

Reviews
"This exciting timetravel novel allows readers of grades six through nine to 'suspend their belief' and follow as a young girl steps back and forth in time."
