Three weeks have passed since thirteen-year-old Scout Jensen discovered the mysterious underground garden hidden beneath Meadowbrook Park. (Scout Jensen and the Garden of Quantum Secrets) What began as curiosity about an old journal has led Scout and her friends into a world of quantum technology, temporal gateways, and century-old conspiracies.
Scout now knows that her father Patrick didn't die in an accident two years ago-he discovered something so dangerous that a powerful organization called the Directorate staged his death to stop him. In reality, Patrick successfully escaped through a temporal gateway and now exists as one of the Temporal Guardians, brilliant scientists from across history who work together to protect revolutionary discoveries from those who would suppress them.
With the help of her best friends Mary and Dylan, her grandfather Thomas, and an AI assistant called ISAAC (Intelligent System for Analysis and Cryptography), Scout successfully activated a quantum network hidden throughout the city of Northhaven. This network, designed by Victorian scientists Audrey Bennett and Heinrich Mueller, was built to preserve scientific knowledge across time itself.
But the Directorate-a corporate conspiracy spanning generations-isn't finished. They've been watching Scout's every move, and now they're ready to make their next gambit in the battle for control of humanity's greatest scientific discoveries.
The adventure continues...
