Lucas Duran has been on the trip of a lifetime—six months traveling
through Europe with his parents and two younger brothers. That
is, the trip of a lifetime for someone else. Lucas wants nothing more Amy Bearce
than to be home in Austin, Texas, with his friends, and it shows in
his schoolwork that he’s been emailing to his teachers. He can’t wait
Amy Bearce
to get out of Rome, the last stop on their trip.
When his teachers give him an ultimatum—either turn in a
phenomenal last project or you’ll fail the eighth grade—Lucas has to decide
whether to give up or give in to the mystery of Rome. And after a
cryptic palm reader hands him a weird-looking coin to throw in the
Trevi Fountain, Lucas finds himself transported to ancient Rome at
each new tourist destination. As his hops back through time become
more personal, it seems the magic of Rome is determined to help
Lucas gain more than an A+ project. Can he fix his future before his
time in the past is over?

“Who wouldn’t love to travel back in time to ancient Rome?
Amy Bearce cooks up her own magic with the help of a palm reader,
a mysterious coin, and the Trevi Fountain. Another European hit!”
