Warning: if you enjoy romantic tales about princesses dressed in pink, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK!

Auggie Spinoza thinks he is just an ordinary kid with ordinary parents living in an ordinary house and going to an ordinary school. But when a mysterious hole in the living room curtain transports him through time, he uncovers his true identity and learns that he is anything but ordinary.

In fact, at this very moment, he is probably the most extraordinary and important person in the world. For, you see, his journey through time thrusts Auggie into a desperate battle against a secret organization of villainous spies determined to alter history in ways that will have far-reaching and devastating consequences for Auggie, his family, and the world he cherishes.

To defeat them, Auggie must pursue a dangerous quest to find and decipher a set of cryptic clues scattered through history. Using only the power of his own brain, the help of a clever new friend, and advice from a cast of famous characters (with names like Jefferson, Darwin, and Plato), Auggie struggles heroically to fulfill his destiny and save his world from ruin. Along the way, he learns the importance of thinking critically and not being deceived by the trickery of spies.

Fans of Rick Riordan, The 39 Clues, and The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel will delight in this action-packed and thought-provoking adventure through history.
