The time travelling Hudson kids face their ultimate adventure as epochs crash together in the middle-grade fantasy series finale.

With the power of the Aeternum, Captain Vincent can rewrite history to create his perfect future. And thanks to Alfred Nobel, the notorious inventor of dynamite, he will soon be able to erase people from time altogether—including those pesky Hudson kids.

As Captain Vincent unleashes temporal chaos, Central Park becomes a playground for dinosaurs and the Metropolitan Museum of Art is overrun by the very historical figures it features. Meanwhile, the Hudsons begin to disappear, one by one, and Matt finds himself increasingly alone.

Only the Hudson kids are able to mend the three pillars of the universe—matter, space, and time—that Captain Vincent broke. And to do it they must return to Matt’s birthplace, Ciudad Perdida, the Lost City of Colombia, where the Hudsons and Captain Vincent face off in the ultimate showdown—a battle for time itself.

Time Castaways: The Forbidden Lock

Liesl Shurtliff, New York Times bestselling author of Rump: The True Story of Rumpelstiltskin, continues the action-packed Time Castaways trilogy with book two, in which the Hudsons sail across time and history as they embark on a daring rescue mission.

With magic, mystery, and adventure, this is perfect for fans of Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library and Percy Jackson. 

Mateo, Ruby, and Corey Hudson have lost their friend Jia to the villainous Captain Vincent’s clutches, and now they’re determined to bring her back to safety. But the Hudson kids don’t have a way to time-travel without the Obsidian Compass, until Mateo figures out the secret component to get his own homemade compass working. 

Soon the whole family—plus their wacky neighbor, Chuck, and his rusty orange bus, Blossom—are swept up in another epic journey. 

With their own time-traveling vehicle and some help from history’s most famous young markswoman, Annie Oakley, the Hudsons think they’re prepared to sneak onto the Vermillion. Unbeknownst to them, Captain Vincent already knows they’re coming. In fact, he’s counting on it…
