Es ist Zeit für neue Helden! Durch die Zeit zu reisen, um unbezahlbare Objekte aus der Vergangenheit zu klauen, ist das Größte – solange nicht ein anderer Time Catcher versucht, einem die Beute abzujagen sowie die beste Freundin auszuspannen und der eigene Boss plant, Kinder zu kidnappen, um sein florierendes Diebesunternehmen auszubauen. Mehr als ein Grund für Caleb über Flucht nachzudenken. Bloß ist kein Ort der Welt – in Vergangenheit und Zukunft – sicher vor den Schergen des Boss’. Und Abtrünnigen droht die härteste Strafe von allen. Wird Caleb alles riskieren, um in der Zukunft zu landen, die er sich erträumt?
