Jonah and Katherine are still reeling from the traumatic events of Sabotaged when they are hurtled through time again, to 1611, moments before a mutiny on Henry Hudson’s ship in the icy waters of James Bay. As they struggle to survive the brutal conditions aboard the ship, Jonah and Katherine begin to realize that something is very wrong. A crucial person has vanished, and the history they remember is drastically different from what they’re experiencing. Will this new version of history replace the real past? Jonah and Katherine struggle to unravel the mysteries of 1611 and the Northwest Passage before the only future they’ve ever known is lost forever.

Add a Commentloved this series and loved TORN good story if you are 10 years of age or grade 5 i would highly recommend this series
5 STARS
Eh...
I liked the book and all but for me the series goes downhill from Found. Found is probably my fav book out of the series. But all the others are thumbs down for me...👎
I mean what's the deal with Second??? Why does he keep coming backkkk. It's really annoying after a while. You know what I mean?
With surprise plot twists and time-traveling adventures this is a fine example of combining historical fiction and science fiction.

But anyways, I recommend this book to ANYONE who likes historical fiction and lots and lots of action and adventure! :)
