Into the Dim

Janet B. Taylor

Expected publication: March 1, 2016

Genre: YA Time Travel

“Her future is a thousand years in the past.”

Being “the home-schooled girl” in a small town, Hope Walton’s crippling phobias and photographic memory don’t endear her to her dad's perfectly blond, very Southern family. When her mother is killed in a natural disaster thousands of miles from home, Hope’s secluded world implodes. After being shipped off to an aunt she's never met, Hope learns there's more to her mother's "death" than she ever dreamed. At her aunt's manor, high in the Scottish Highlands, Hope begins to unravel the shocking truth about her family. Her mom isn't just a brilliant academic. She’s a member of a secret society of time travelers, and is currently trapped in the twelfth century in the age of King Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine. To stage a rescue, the sheltered teen must join the Indiana Jones-wannabe team of time-jumpers, before her mother is lost for good. In a brutal, medieval world, Hope will discover more family secrets, and a mysterious boy who could be vital to setting her mother free…or the very key to Hope’s undoing.

It's time travel... to the 12th century. It's a rare time period in time travel fiction.

I'm so excited for this book! I'm studying history so I know this time period (mostly for French history), I' can't wait to read on that period. I agree with you, when history is involved, it's more the World Wars or between the 17th and 19th century, but never the Middle Ages.
