The Log of Matthew Roving Episode 2: A Riddle in the Sand
By Don Wallace; Illustrated by Jan Adkins
In Episode One, 12-year-old Matthew Roving landed over 200 years in the past, thanks to a knock on the head and the influence of an old ship's logbook. The year is 1772 and America is stirring to the drum-beat of revolution. Though comforted by the company of his sister, Abby, Matthew is alarmed to discover that she, like everybody else in Newport, assumes that their father was lost at sea a year ago. Matthew worries that his father's life must somehow be in danger back in the modern world—but right now he has his hands full coping with life in the Colonial era.
