Bookroo's summary

Mr. Higgins faces a puzzling dilemma: four clocks, each showing a different time. Confused and frustrated, he seeks answers. The mysterious Clockmaker reveals a surprising truth—are all the clocks correct? Discover the twist that challenges time itself.

From the publisher

When the hall clock reads twenty minutes past four, the attic clock reads twenty-three minutes past four, the kitchen clock reads twenty-five minutes past four, and the bedroom clock reads twenty-six minutes past four, what should Mr. Higgins do? He can’t tell which of his clocks tells the right time. He is in for a real surprise when the Clockmaker shows him that they are all correct!
