The House of Mirrors
Adventure
Mystery
The statue in the square depicts a king who never existed, the train tracks disappear into nothingness, and the town’s name doesn’t even appear on maps.
Only the map stolen by Oblivia and an old tourist guide hint at the existence of this remote town. And with it, the existence of other hidden Time Doors.
On the trail of Ulysses Moore, Jason, Julia, and Rick stumble upon new puzzles: the disappearance of Peter Dedalus, a brilliant inventor and watchmaker; his eccentric home, the House of Mirrors; and a game of chess that seems to continue through the centuries…
