The Time Cave

Your bicycle repair kit is safe. You, unfortunately, are still at the bottom of a hole.

You’re twelve, trapped beneath a fallen fig tree on the coast of Menorca, and your friend Biel is stuck with you. Your supplies include a flashlight, a phone with no signal, and tools meant for fixing a bicycle—not escaping a cave. Then you discover stone arches that lead to the same coast in different centuries.

In 1684, a watchkeeper needs to warn a fishing boat. In 1912, a salt worker wants help recovering unpaid wage records. In 2086, a water engineer struggles to protect a precious drinking-water supply. You need allies and reliable clues, but every detour gives the tide more time to rise. Finding daylight is only part of the problem. You need your own year.
