Lorenzo's Daggers: A Time Travel Historical Adventure

A classic tale of time travel Set in modern-day New England and Renaissance Italy. A troubled high school student has mysteriously gone missing. His concerned history teacher, ostracized by his colleagues and under a cloud of suspicion over the boy's disappearance, sets out on a quest to rescue him. His quest takes him unexpectedly through a parallel universe to 15th century Florence, a bygone era of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Lorenzo de Medici, Savonarola and a Borgia Pope. It is a time and place of treachery and deceit, but also of incomparable genius. There the teacher finds his lost student, but the boy has no interest in returning to his former life. Rather, the boy has at last found his niche, his knowledge of the modern world allowing him to raise to the level of Prince. When trouble approaches in the form of an invading army, however, the fickle people of Florence turn on him. Student and teacher are taken prisoner with their window of opportunity to return home quickly closing. A feel good coming of age story - part mystery, part thriller, part adventure - crackling with historical detail to entertain and enlighten the reader.
