Description

This morning Sam Sullivan was a modern kid with a straightforward sort of life. This afternoon he's living in 1901 with a bunch of crazy people who think they know him! When he's laid a few bets, fought a few thieves and slept in some pretty strange places it's time to get real. An accident in a shooting gallery forces him to take a tough decision - can he change the past and affect his own future Kirsty Murray enjoys the challenge of blending fiction and non-fiction, she says: 'Playing with ideas, pretending to be other people, and weaving stories together from different threads of information really is my idea of fun.'
