Book Six of Temporal Exploring 101.
Catherine (Cathy) Hart, a girl of the 23rd century, has become enrolled as a student at an English boarding school for girls in the 1960s on her First Temporal Assignment.
With her original one-year mission successfully completed, Cathy was unexpectedly offered an extension of her assignment by her supervisors in the 23rd century - an offer that Cathy readily accepted, seizing the opportunity to spend another year with her friends at St. Albert's.
The objective of her new mission will be to investigate the discovery of a strange new spacetime portal into what appears to be either England in the Middle Ages or else a completely different, mysterious medieval world.
Now that she has graduated from the Upper Fifth to the Lower Sixth, Cathy's life has not improved as much as she might have hoped.
She still gets into trouble with teachers, prefects and the headmistress way too often and her budding relationship with playful, mischievous Mallory Carmichael becomes even more intense but at the same time not any easier to manage.
As ancient artifacts are discovered and old legends come to life, what Cathy finds out about the world beyond the portal will challenge the young Temporal Explorer and her friends and make them question their most cherished beliefs.
