Meet Harriet and Will
Harriet Cooper and her best friend, Will Taylor, research a school history project in their local library.
Harriet’s eyes are drawn to a picture of an ancient silver ring in an old book….and then something extraordinary happens!
The two friends are drawn into time-slip adventures galore in three ancient locations. Can they return in time to complete their school project?
