The Celtic Deception: A Jump in Time Novel, Book Two
About this ebook
Seventeen-year-old Dan Renfrew never asked to be a time jumper. Saving history is a responsibility no teenager should have to shoulder. But when the ruthless Victor Stahl threatens to reshape the world to serve his own ambitions, Dan and his time-jumping partner, Sam, must once again venture into the past to stop him.
Their journey takes them to the Celtic island of Anglesey in 60 CE, where ancient traditions, powerful druids, and dangerous secrets stand between them and the answers they desperately need. The islanders who offer them refuge seem to be hiding something, and even the druids who hold sway over Anglesey cannot be trusted.
Meanwhile, two Roman legions are advancing toward the island, determined to destroy everything in their path. With an invasion looming and Victor's plans still unfolding, Dan and Sam must uncover the truth before history—and their own futures—are lost forever.
