About this book

"If you are a teen experiencing crushes...you will enjoy this book. If you are an adult, you will enjoy it just as much, reminiscing and growing in nostalgia at the adventures of a female strong lead that in some capacity we can see ourselves in like a mirror." Tim Kreher, author. "I couldn't put this one down, and couldn't wait to discover what happens next." Lisa Fox, award-winning author of Core Truths.

Every Samurai knows a sword contains the soul of the warrior it was made for. With Riley missing, Madison teams up with Recall to do a time travel heist. Accompanied by her friend Chi, she travels back to Edo Japan, circa 1600, to steal the Dragon's Breath, an ancient Samurai sword with a rich source of temporal power in the handle. A Recall agent in the period helps them get jobs as entertainers in the home of the family protecting the sword. By day, the girls practise their routine. By night, among the blossoms of a Japanese garden, they make plans to steal the sword which is guarded by a trio of powerful Samurai. Brute force is not an option; it's the ninja's art they must learn to achieve their goal. Will they secure the blade and get Riley back? Or will the enemy agent betray them and leave them at the mercy of some of history's fiercest warriors? A high-stakes, fast-paced time travel adventure in Edo Japan. Read more
