The Cannonball in the Wall
A Time-Slip Mystery Spanning Two Centuries
A forgotten relic. A hidden message from the past. A mystery that refuses to stay buried.
When sixteen-year-old Julia Mercer discovers an old cannonball embedded deep within the wall of her family's historic New Jersey home, she expects a curious piece of local history. Instead, she uncovers the first clue in a mystery that stretches back to the turbulent days of the American Revolution.
As Julia begins investigating the cannonball's origins, strange events begin to unfold. Cryptic journal entries appear where none existed before. Long-forgotten names emerge from dusty archives. And a series of discoveries reveals a startling possibility: the past and present may be far more connected than anyone imagined.

But some secrets were hidden for a reason, and the deeper she digs, the more dangerous her search becomes.
Facing puzzles, betrayals, and impossible questions about time itself, Julia must uncover the truth before history repeats itself.
