Hide Ad“The town is quite small so it is a good place for children to have a nice life, but it also has a sense of history.
“The school visits have been rather fun, as thinking about the future does tend to ignite a child’s imagination.”
The other two books in the trilogy, The Accidental Time Traveller and The Reluctant Time Traveller, both look into Peebles’ past.

Hide AdJanis added: “During my research I found out about a spy – Carl Hans Lody – who stayed in the County Hotel in the town ... he was the first spy to be executed in the Tower of London during the First World War.”

The new book, which was published on May 19, can be bought in paperback format (£6.99) and e-book (£4.99).
