Synopsis

What if time didn't just move forward... but spiraled?

Twelve-year-old Jaden Wellingford never meant to discover the secret behind his family's strange old clock-or the way it hums louder when he's upset. But when he begins experiencing strange "time slips," he finds himself pulled into an ancient mystery hidden beneath the town of Tempus. Shadows move where they shouldn't. Reflections disappear. And an impossible spiral symbol seems to be following him everywhere.

With the help of a bold new friend named Aria, Jaden unravels clues about his missing parents, a hidden world called the Spiral, and a legacy that might be bigger than he's ready for. As time itself begins to warp around him, Jaden must decide if he's brave enough to unlock his family's greatest secret... or risk losing himself to the echoes of the past.

This first book in the Chronomancer series combines adventure, mystery, and a touch of science fantasy in a story about courage, identity, and the choices that shape who we become. Time isn't just running out...it's folding in.
