At home in Cairo, an unexpected gift arrives for Aliya, promising to grant her greatest wish — to know more about her lost parents. To her surprise, she is whisked off by flying carpet to a parallel Egypt, where she is enrolled at an academy for... time-travellers! But while she's there, an enemy is watching — a master of forbidden magic. If they can unlock Aliya's inherited talent, they can change history forever.
