Tomorrow's Guardian
Experiencing disturbing episodes of déjà-vu, eleven year old Tom believes he is going mad. Then, he meets the adventurer Septimus Mason, who shows him that he is a “Walker” – someone who can transport himself to other times and places.
Septimus explains that these abilities could be removed leaving him, once more, an ordinary schoolboy. Given the hurt these talents have caused, the choice would seem easy enough, but it is not so simple.
In dreams, Tom has experienced life as other “Walkers” in times of mortal danger: Edward Dyson killed at the Battle of Isandlwana, 1879; Mary Brown who perished in the Great Fire of London, 1666; and finally Charlie Hawker, a sailor who was drowned on a U-boat in 1943.
Reluctantly agreeing to travel back in time and rescue them, Tom has three dangerous adventures before returning to the present day.
Tom’s troubles have only just started, however, for he has now drawn the attention of powerful individuals who seek to use him to change history and to bend it to their will. This leads to a struggle wherein Tom’s family are obliterated from existence and Tom must make a choice between saving them and saving his entire world.

With his cloak wrapped tightly around him to keep out the early morning chill, he had slipped unnoticed between the gravestones and stopped at the side door of the church. Blake paused now to glance behind, dark eyes probing the shadows that lay along the road and around the indistinct bulk of nearby houses beyond.
Somewhere in the city was the one man who might prevent him doing what he planned. This night had been long in the preparation and he did not want it spoilt by those interfering Praesidium, or their leader Cornelius Silver. He took one last look and then, satisfied he was alone, the door was opened with a judder and a creak as rusty hinges complained about unexpected use. He entered the gloomy interior, shutting the door behind him.
Once inside, he glanced around at the altar, the font and then towards the main doors and contemplated the scene. This was a place of worship: a hallowed sanctuary to the parishioners who came here to find peace, comfort and protection from evil.
“Nam et si ambulavero in medio umbrae mortis, non timebo mala, quoniam tu mecum es,” Blake recited solemnly and then stood in silence pondering the words for a moment. ‘For though I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils, for thou art with me.’
Suddenly he laughed, a sneer snaking across his face as he thought about what he now planned to do. The faithful who trusted in this holy place would soon run from the shadow of death and Blake himself would be the one to bring them fear. No - much more than fear, in a few hours he would bring them terror.
Six hours later Blake had prepared everything. Nearby lay the crumpled body of...
