The crime of the century. A magical train. Can two girls born 150 years apart stop thieves from stealing the secret to time travel before their own lives disappear forever?

Out of nowhere a strange woman takes over the school and everything goes crazy. People start hating each other, Molly’s favorite teachers get fired, and adults disappear from the town.
Told by an antique shop owner that the stranger is a dangerous time traveler from the 1890s, Molly can’t believe such a crazy idea. But when the woman’s goons set fire to the entire town, Molly escapes on an unusual steam train…and finds herself racing into the past.
