Greg Howard
When twelve-year-old Ben Turner’s mom unexpectedly passes away, he's forced into the care of the only living relative he has left—a grandmother he’s never met who lives in a place he’s never been. Rutledge, South Carolina is worlds from bustling Nashville.
Upon arriving at his grandmother's house, Ben is dumbfounded by the large, stone and brick building that greets him. Clifton House appears far more haunted mansion than house and Ben can’t get over the fact that this is where his mom grew up. Inside, Ben is surprised to see clocks—clocks of all shapes and sizes on the walls, mantels and tables. What’s even more surprising, is that none of the clocks tell the correct time and some even seem to be moving backwards.
Before Ben can ask too many questions, his stern grandmother tells him there are two rules that must be followed at Clifton House: never touch the clocks and never go up to the third floor. But on his very first night, Ben hears footsteps and hushed whispers—all seeming to come from the third floor.
Soon Ben begins to suspect there’s something more to Clifton House than broken clocks and dusty old furniture. Is it poltergeists? Hidden passageways? Or something to do with the very fabric of time itself? With the help of two new friends, Ollie and Ash, Ben embarks on a quest to solve the mystery of Clifton House and quickly finds himself in a race against time to save his family and possibly even himself.
Edgar-nominated Greg Howard returns with a heartening, twisty mystery that is also a profound journey of loss and healing.

Praise for The Travelers:
“An orphan stumbles upon adventures and tragic revelations beyond his wildest imaginings…Howard’s plotting of the time travel element is solid and doesn’t get bogged down in mechanics, which helps the bittersweet moments land.

“In this twisty time-travel adventure, recently unearthed family secrets propel a grieving tween on a mission to change the past…Thoughtful character dynamics explore intergenerational grief and trauma as Ben attempts to rectify past wrongs, faces somber present-day realities, and comes to terms with his loss. It’s a quietly intimate story suggesting that healing can be found through sincere connection.”—Publisher’s Weekly
