Ben Thistle: The Mystery of the Azure Star, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A mysterious pocket watch. A stolen sapphire. A journey back to 1965.

The Mystery of the Azure Star is the first thrilling adventure in the Time Sleuths, a fast-paced time travel mystery series for kids ages 8-12 who love puzzles, secrets, and solving clues.

When thirteen-year-old Charlie Penrose and her ten-year-old twin siblings, Tom and Lucy, arrive for a quiet summer at their Great-Uncle Bartleby's seaside home, they expect nothing more exciting than exploring the beach.

But hidden among dusty antiques is a golden pocket watch with a mysterious inscription.

One press of a button changes everything.

In an instant, the children are transported back to 1965, on the very night the legendary Azure Star sapphire disappeared. For decades the missing gem has remained one of the country's greatest unsolved mysteries. Now the Penrose siblings may have the chance to finally uncover the truth.

But investigating the past is far more dangerous than they expected. Secret passages, suspicious strangers, and a ruthless criminal searching for the same jewel soon place the children in serious danger. And if they cannot solve the mystery in time, they may never make it back to the present.

Can the Time Sleuths recover the stolen sapphire and solve the mystery of its disappearance? Or will they be trapped in the past forever?
