Bookroo's summary

Cody, Eric, and Rachel's prank with a fake Egyptian tablet lands them in community service. While mowing a cemetery, they discover ancient stones hinting at a sacred site predating settlers. Suddenly, they're thrust into a rescue mission in an unimaginable world. Can their historical savvy and quick wits guide them back home, or will they be lost forever in this new realm? As they navigate this unexpected adventure, the stakes rise, and the line between myth and reality blurs. Will they uncover the truth in time?

From the publisher

In their last adventure, Cody, Eric and Rachel were clever enough to fool their town with a homemade “ancient Egyptian” tablet. Their exploits brought some much-needed tourism to their hometown, but their deception won them a summer’s worth of community service. While mowing the grass in the local cemetery, they stumble across some ancient stones that seem to indicate this was a sacred site long before the arrival of European settlers. All of a sudden, they find themselves on a rescue mission in a world beyond their imagination. Will their quick thinking and knack for history be enough to get them home?
