Teaching was never supposed to be like this!

When the insecure, history-obsessed, rookie-substitute teacher Mr. Hornsby steps into a classroom at Upper Kakapo Middle School and is transported back in time, a brand-new series for middle schoolers is born.

In Book 1: Secrets of the Pierce Journal, Mr. Hornsby learns that two of his new students from the past are actually future presidents and American history is in jeopardy. If he can''t discover the origins of his time-traveling powers in time and help his new students, the United States will never be the same. The clues to it all lie inside a centuries-old journal, which will unveil the truth behind America''s greatest mystery and an enemy he''s not sure can be stopped.

The clues to stopping a multiphase assassination plot against the president and his family are inside a high school lesson plan.

Renegade CIA operative Reid Mathews goes undercover in the unlikeliest placea high school in the president''s hometown. When his ex-fiance and FBI Agent Kelly Casey''s investigation of a US congressman leads her down the same dark path, they must work together to swiftly and tactfully untangle a political web of lies that stretch from Washington to Russia.

As people close to them begin to die, Reid and Kelly learn nothing is as it appears, and they will have to risk everything, face their haunting pasts, and repair their relationship or thousands more will die. Salvation is inside a lesson plan, but only if they can identify it in time. As they will learn, it''s unlike anything ever taught inside a classroom.
