Stolen Time

 

From dual perspectives Danielle Rollins has written a science fiction novel about time travel that is the first in a series.

Dorothy was engaged to be married to a doctor in 1913 but was looking for a means of escape.  Ash was a pilot of a time traveling  plane into which Dorothy has stowed away.  She ends up in the Seattle of 2077 in which horrendous earthquakes and floods have nearly destroyed everything.  Ash is searching for the professor who has perfected time travel.  The crew with Ash includes a strong man, a girl with the best medical knowledge from the past, and the daughter of the professor.  Through many battles with those who are also searching for the plane and the Exotic Matter energy source needed to fly it, Dorothy learns that Ash and his group can be depended on and that the life of scams that she and her mother had used to outwit adversaries was not the life Dorothy wanted now.  This book is recommended for grades 7-12.
