About the Book

The Ashcombe family's story begins with a thrilling twist as their vacation takes an unexpected turn, transporting them-along with their beloved dog, Winston-from the year 2024 to the year 1924. Stranded a hundred years ago, they are thrust into survival mode as they face a world without the technology, resources, and comforts they've always relied on. Ben and Bev, accompanied by their two children-12-year-old Eva and 15-year-old Jake-navigate a foreign, uncertain time.
Their car becomes their makeshift shelter, but as their supplies dwindle, including food for Winston, it becomes clear that they are in serious trouble. With no way to contact the outside world or know how to return to their own time, desperation sets in.
As they grapple with the challenges in unfamiliar surroundings, their 2024 money and IDs prove futile, leaving them exposed and needing a plan. Yet, they refuse to succumb to despair. Instead, they pool their resourcefulness and ingenuity as a family to survive. They fashion slingshots from branches to hunt small game and create fishing poles from twigs and string to catch fish from the nearby stream. Despite their fear, they stand united, refusing to let go of hope and using their shared determination and skills to navigate their predicament.
Eva and Jake are adaptable as they face survival challenges in a different era. Even Winston, sensing the tension within the family, adds to the already high stakes as he grows restless and hungry. Modern conveniences once taken for granted are now a distant memory, pushing the family's survival instincts to the limit as they traverse the wilderness, clinging onto hope.
Their journey eventually leads them to a small, rural community where they must blend in with the locals, doing everything possible to avoid suspicion about their true identities. In this unfamiliar time, they encounter historical figures like Philo Farnsworth, whose pioneering work in television technology captivates Jake. The Ashcombes offer their skills to help struggling farmers and townspeople, gaining acceptance while secretly fighting to find a way back home.
Meanwhile, Eva faces the challenge of attending a one-room schoolhouse-a far cry from her life in 2024. Initially horrified by the thought of studying in a cramped classroom with children of all ages, using outdated materials, and facing harsh discipline, she resists the idea. Eva's experience at the school is eye-opening, forcing her to adapt to the realities of a very different educational system while struggling to find her place in this new world.
Amidst their daily struggle for survival, Eva comes face-to-face with the harsh reality of racial prejudices in 1924. Her friendship with a local girl who has been mistreated due to her ethnicity forces Eva to confront the societal norms of that era. Though shaken to her core, she finds the courage to resist and stand up against discrimination, determined to make a slight difference in this past world.
Together, they face one obstacle after another, learning to navigate the complex dynamics of the 1920s while safeguarding their modern-day secrets. Their bond as a family grows more robust, their resilience deepens, and despite an uncertain future, the Ashcombes hold onto hope that one day they will find a way back to 2024.
Survival is not just about finding food and shelter; it's also about confronting moral dilemmas and societal differences from a bygone era.
The tension is relentless, the stakes high, and the excitement of the Ashcombe family's journey will leave readers on the edge of their seats. They must navigate not just the dangers of a century-old world but also the challenge of deciding whether to return to the future-or build a new life in 1924.
