Book excerpt: Zasha is ten years old and adopted. The only thing that she inherited from her original family was a mysterious locked book titled The Melenary, along with a key to unlock it and instructions to never open it. When strange things begin to happen to Zasha and her friends, a woman named Nasha unexpectedly arrives to take Zasha to Africa. In the underground city of Ontagu, Zasha learns that there is much more to this trip than she had first expected. Her book has the essence of time trapped within, and she has the responsibility of guarding it. A man named Jack, however, plans to reconstruct the world with the power that it holds, and only Zasha and a few others stand in his way. The battle between Zasha and Jack grows intense, and suddenly, the complicated mystery of Zasha’s family begins to unfold. Zasha soon realizes that to protect time, she will have to sacrifice more than she had ever imagined.
