When librarian Valerie Tremt gives student Luis Ramirez the chance to travel in time, he has a clear goal: return to 1696 and locate Captain William Kidd’s buried treasure. He thinks the treasure will make him rich and famous. After a daring trip, Luis returns empty‑handed, disheartened and unable to convince his older brother Rafael of the journey’s reality. Determined to prove the experience for himself and brother, Luis brings the library’s "Book of Memories" home—despite Ms. Tremt’s warning that the book cannot leave the library without her permission. The consequences he faces shed light on the rules and risks that guard a world where time travelers and hidden treasure intersect.
