On the first day of summer vacation, Jeremy Bixtu's mother moves them to a ramshackle house in the middle of nowhere, propelling him into the adventure of his life time. When a serendipitous discovery of a wrecked Hillman Husky provides Jeremy the ability to time travel, he sets out on a mission to find the father he has not seen in five years and to prove to his older brother, Nick, their dad has not abandoned the children for good. Along the way Jeremy is stranded in New York City, captured by pirates, and loses his younger brother and sister in limbo. "Jeremy Bixtu and the Hillman Husky" is a fast-paced 25,000-word middle grades novel set in modern-day southern California.

The book is an archetypal quest and a wacky celebration of hope and family.
