Imagine being trapped 200 years from now. Thad Compton doesn't have to imagine, because it's happened.Born in 1820, Thad tries to adapt to the twenty-first century with its technologies and medical miracles but, sometimes, it seems that nothing is real. His badly broken leg has been rebroken and healed; his teeth are encased in braces, and, if you looked at him you'd seen a good looking youth who was almost 200 years old. For a while, everything is different and an adventure until he finds out that his future seems entwined with his school's resident bully. He will have to use every bit of his imagination and belief in God in his fight against evil.
