A parent would reach for this book when their middle-schooler is looking for a high-octane escape that rewards curiosity about history and science. It is an ideal pick for a child who feels caught between being a kid and taking on more responsibility, as the story highlights the courage required to make difficult choices when the stakes are high. While it functions as a pulse-pounding thriller, it also offers a thoughtful look at loyalty and the consequences of one's actions. The story follows FBI agent Chevie Savano and her friend Riley as they navigate a dangerous version of Victorian London to stop a power-hungry colonel from altering the future with modern weaponry. It balances intense action with witty humor and a deep, platonic bond between the two leads. Given the gritty historical setting and some sequences of violence, it is best suited for readers aged 10 and up who enjoy complex, fast-paced narratives. Parents will appreciate the way it encourages resilience and critical thinking about the impact of technology.
