A spyglass. A rare amulet. An ancient prophecy. Trapped in the past.

Moving to his grandfather's farm was the last thing Mitch Howell wanted, but his parents did it anyway. Left on his own, Mitch sneaks into the attic of his grandfather's house and discovers a spyglass. Curious about the spyglass and its connection to his loony great-grandpa, he doesn't realize it's really a portal to the past and the key to an ancient prophecy until it's too late. Thrown back in time to Ancient Egypt with his best friend, Brock, the boys are on a quest to find their way home. But they aren't the only ones who know the powers of the spyglass.

Can Mitch and Brock get home before the spyglass falls into the wrong hands and changes the world forever?
