Being a foreign exchange student is hard enough without dinosaurs making an appearance.

Cam's ambitions are straightforward: study Business English in Wellington for six months, then return to Vietnam to build a promising career. She doesn't need any complications, least of all those created by Bree, her host-family's secretive, troubled, teenage daughter. But when a dinosaur is being (very noisily) built in the bedroom next to yours, and a meteor-strike is threatening, it's not always possible to avoid being sucked in – especially when there's a should-be extinct animal in your own history. And one winter's night in Karori, Cam's past resurfaces as well.
