  Charlie hopes that the new term at Bloor's Academy will hold no nasty
  surprises. But then Henry Yewbeam appears, twisted through time from the icy
  winter of 1916.
  
  With the scheming Yewbeam aunts on the prowl, and the Bloors out to catch him,
  Henry will need Charlie's help just to stay alive. Bloor's Academy can be a
  very dangerous place. . . .
  
  THE ENDOWED
  
  These characters are all descended from the ten children of the Red King, a
  magician-king who left Africa in the twelfth century accompanied by three
  leopards.
  
  The Red King had already lived for several centuries and he made a marvelous
  glass sphere, putting into it all the memories of his travels through the
  world. He used the sphere to twist through time, visiting the past and the
  future.
  
  In any other hands, the Time Twister is dangerous and unpredictable.
