Sabotaged

Jonah and Katherine are ready for their new mission: to return Andrea—who is really Virginia Dare—to the lost colony of Roanoke in the 16th century. They’ll help her restore the balance of history, and then they can all go home.

But right away things start to go wrong. They lose the Elucidator and aren’t sure where in time they’ve landed. As they struggle to survive without food, water, supplies or a way to contact anyone for rescue, they try to piece together the mystery of Roanoke. What happened to the missing colonists? And how can they help Andrea restore history if they don’t even know what century they’re in? The more Jonah and Katherine look for answers, the more questions they have—until they come across the most chilling possibility of all: that their mission has been deliberately sabotaged.
