Book #13 in the The Time Warp Trio series
Trapped in ancient Mexico, three friends must win a deadly game to escape.
Joe, Sam, and Fred find themselves whisked from a Brooklyn basketball court to ancient Chichén Itzá. Surrounded by Mayan players, they must win a high-stakes game to avoid becoming sacrifices. Can they outsmart the Mayan High Priest and retrieve The Book before time runs out?
One minute Joe, Sam, and Fred are shooting hoops in Brooklyn; the next they’re on a court that is definitely not in New York, and surrounded by a bunch of players wearing feathered headdresses and not much else. And the other team is saying something about losers being the next blood sacrifices. Uh-oh. Tossed back in time to Chichén Itzá, Mexico, in the year A.D. 1000, the Time Warp Trio is at it again. But can the guys score and find The Book before the Mayan High Priest and his team force them into “sudden death” overtime?
