Stealing Time is a rip-roaring fantasy for young adults. When the Hands of Time are stolen from the clock faces of Big Ben, two nights before Christmas, all time freezes on planet earth. For, behind Big Ben exists an eternal, spiritual hologram of the famous clock tower and is a portal to the other side of time. The spiritual hands are an incarnation of time and are one with the actual physical hands.
Three 21st-Century adventurers, 14-year olds James Thompson and Julian Huxley join with older bully Axa Jack and meet the Time Keeper, a Victorian gentleman, Wilberforce Talbot-Jones. But to pass through the Time Way, the Ride of Time has to be experienced. The driver who steers their perilous course is Skyana; a princess and warrior who guides her flying stagecoach, drawn by six white stallions through a face of Big Ben.
