As Stanley got closer, he saw two figures beating on a lone man, while four others stood back to watch. "Hey!" Stanley's voice sounded hoarse in his ears. "Leave him be!"Shadows that move on their own, a mysterious device that looks like a pocket watch, a man on the run from monsters that exist in dreams—all are connected to Stanley because he interrupted a mugging. Now Stanley holds the Time Key, an object that allows him to travel through time. With the extraordinary gift of being able to see both the past and the future, he may be the only one who can save his family.
