After construction workers discover a mass grave in his schoolyard, thirteen-year-old foster child Tom falls--or is pulled--into the excavated grave. He emerges from the darkness to find he has traveled through time from 1974 Liverpool to 1847 Ireland. Tom's colorful first-person narrative describes the era of the great potato famine with honesty; his time travel experiences also provide some clues to his family background.
