For Civil War buffs, this adds a another fictional dimension to our never ending fascination with the subject.

When thirteen-year-old Carter McGlone removes a medal from around the neck of a skeleton he stumbles across in 1912, he has no idea that fifteen years later that same medal will take him on a journey back in time to 1863, where he meets and falls in love with Helen Jones; comes face to face with seventeen-year-old Kiernan O'Doherty who, some sixty years in the future, will be involved in the murder of Carter's girlfriend, Emmaline; and gets caught up in a minor battle of the Civil War. Take this incredible trip with Carter; a wild ride through time, war, and romance.
I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to getting more of his books. I also read Strangled in the Stacks, and he has two more of the Booker Falls series I want to read. I like mysteries but not the blood & guts that so many of them have. Ken Grimes does a good job!
I don't usually like time travel books (except for Diana Gabaldon) but this book grabbed me from page 1 and I couldn't put it down. Then at the end, I didn't want it to end. Very enjoyable read!
