Tom is a smart, talented loner with a chip on his shoulder and a big secret: an imaginary twin on another planet.
Eddie is Tom's opposite, a friendly, athletic kid who always looks on the good side.
Tom worries sometimes: does confiding in Eddie mean he's nuts?
The truth is even crazier than that.
Eddie and his planet are just as real as Tom and his Earth, but fifty-some years in the past.
And the twins are caught up in an alien master plan that might just mean Earth - both Earths - will be destroyed. Switching places and identities, "slipping" between planets and across decades, a desperate escape, and the unraveling of deeper secrets leave Tom and Eddie aware of the danger they're facing and the tools they can use to overcome it.
Genre: Children's Fiction
