An orphan by chance and a loner by choice, Alida had only one wish for her 16th birthday - to go away - far away, preferably in her own car. Her wish almost comes true when she awakens the morning of her birthday and discovers that she is now in the 19th Century. She’s a time-traveler, and her guardians had conveniently forgotten to share this little tidbit of information with her. As Alida is taken to live at Aldrich, a school for those with gifts like hers, she discovers that time-travel has been suspended and the school has been stuck in the 19th century for over 16 years.
