A long history of strange disappearances and unexplainable occurrences leave clues that the town of Fawlt Line may actually sit on a time fault-a portal to alternate times and unexpected time travels-a twist of fate that puts all of Fawlt Line's citizens in serious danger. Will they find the faith to hold on to the town and time where they belong? On a foggy night, Jeff and Elizabeth see a car heading through the mist. A man on horseback is in the middle of the road, and a collision was barely avoidable. Now the victim-a giant of a man-lies on a hospital bed, surrounded by hospital staff and a host of questions.
A mysterious stranger appears in Fawlt Line, wearing ancient-looking clothes and speaking perfect Latin. The "lunatic" claims he’s King Arthur. Is he for real? A victim of another crack in time? As Jeff and his cousin Malcolm help the old man return to Britain, they discover again that God can do anything.

Teens will enjoy this time travel adventure of King Arthur, Excalibur, Mordred, and Merlin. I did. The story moves along at a comfortable pace with believable characters handling unbelievable circumstances. Just when the reader thinks he has it all figured out, a new twist in the plot occurs.
The eternal fight of good and evil is the major theme. Can right thinkers prevail over wicked? This is a well written tale that will interest young and old lovers of fantasy.

Jeff and Elizabeth experience another time shift at Fawlt Line but; instead of leaving the present themselves someone from another time arrives. He claims to be King Arthur and only speaks Latin. The story line is interesting and Mr. McCusker has generously explained many of the well-known and not-so-well-known legends of King Arthur and Merlin. He has delved right into the religious ideas of Arthur's time which brings quite a contrast to the present day. The England of our time through Arthur's eyes comes up short and causes the reader to do some real thinking.
A good teen book with good historical references cast in the light of Christianity in medieval times. 4 Stars
