Clifton, Indiana, 1840. Jessie Keyser lives with her family in a small log cabin. Her father is a blacksmith and her mother cares for her and her siblingsโthough, at night, Jessieโs mother also secretly tends anyone who gets sick in their village.
Lately, more and more people have been falling ill. Especially the other kids in Jessieโs one-room schoolhouse. Quarantine signs appear on the local homes. And Jessieโs mother looks worried. Very worried. One night, she tells Jessie that itโs a diphtheria outbreakโa dangerous disease. And if they donโt act soon, some of those sick children could die. Then Jessieโs mother tells her that only Jessie can helpโby leaving Clifton.
But Jessieโs mother also reveals a shocking truth about the outside world, and what, where, and when Clifton is. Jessie will have to escape and survive a totally strange world, because she and her friends are all running out of time.
โThe action moves swiftly, with plenty of suspense, and readers will be eager to discover how Jessie overcomes the obstacles that stand in her wayโฆ This book will appeal to fans of time-travel or historical novels as well as those who prefer realistic contemporary fiction." โSchool Library Journal, starred review

Margaret Peterson Haddix grew up on a farm in Ohio. As a kid, she knew two girls who had the exact same first, middle, and last names and shared the same birthdayโonly one year apartโand she always thought that was bizarre.As an adult, Haddix worked as a newspaper reporter and copy editor in Indiana before her first book, Running Out of Time, was published. She has since written more than forty books for kids and teens, including the Greystone Secrets series, the Shadow Children series, the Missing series, the Children of Exile series, and lots of stand-alones. Haddix and her husband, Doug, now live in Columbus, Ohio, where they raised their two kids. You can learn more about her at haddixbooks.com.
