   Additional Information  
 
  The time-travel adventures of twin brothers Jeb and Jeremy Benally at Ship Rock, New Mexico. Ship Rock was called "the winged rock" by the ancient Navajos, because they believed it flew them to New Mexico and then morphed into stone.

It is also the marker stone for the resting place of an ancient Dutch sailing ship transported piece by piece across the desert by the Navajos. During the journey, the porthole in the Captain's cabin was electrified by a freak lightning storm and became a portal to time -- a tunnel into the past and a gateway to the future.

Seeking shelter from a rainstorm while horseback riding, ten-year-old Chrissy accidentally discovers the terrifying secret of the porthole and gets trapped in the past. If the volcanic rock can't come to life once again to rescue her, can her twin brothers Jeb and Jeremy possibly save her?
