Description:
Past worlds come crashing into the present of 14 year-old Eric when he witnesses a strange confrontation in the city museum between an aged curator and an eerily intense young man - and suddenly finds himself in the middle of a bitter, centuries-old conflict. Ancient Alexander, guardian of the secret of immortality, only wants to preserve the past. His nemesis, Coyle, will do anything to destroy it. Within the eerie city museum, and deep below it in the city's subterranean depths, Eric becomes the pawn in a life-or-death struggle for control over the Live-Forever Machine.
