Kevin heard a man's voice from somewhere on the other side of his room. "Show me your hands, Strange One." A grim voice. "Stand--slowly--and show me your hands."
Kevin is trying to remember what he's supposed to do if there's an intruder in the house--stay calm, don't look scared, call 911. At the same time, he's doing his best to figure out how the heck some guy with a bow and arrows got into the room. The archer's explanation--"I lost my balance, fell off the tiger, and landed here"--just adds to Kevin's bewilderment.
The stranger's astonishing arrival is only the beginning of a dazzling adventure. For the man, whom Kevin calls Archer or Archie, has come from a centuries-old Korean kingdom. And Kevin must find a way to send him back through space and time...before history is changed forever.
