Reach for this book when your child is grappling with a profound sense of unfairness or feels the weight of a family secret they cannot quite name. It is an ideal choice for the young person who is beginning to realize that adults are fallible and that history is shaped by the choices individuals make, even when those choices are difficult or scary. Through the lens of time travel, the story addresses the heavy burden of a father wrongly accused and the lengths a daughter will go to seek justice. Margaret O'Malley discovers she has the ability to travel through time, a gift she uses to venture sixty years into the past to prevent the event that turned a kind young boy into the bitter judge who has sentenced her father to death. This historical fantasy weaves together themes of corporate greed, labor rights, and the transformative power of friendship. While the stakes are high, the narrative emphasizes that courage and compassion can reshape the future, making it a hopeful choice for mature 8 to 12 year olds who enjoy mystery and moral complexity.
