The 48

The 48
A secret government organization sends two brothers back in time on a perilous mission to Tudor England to rewrite the history of King Henry VIII's court

Twin brothers Alex and Charles work as newly trained Assets as part of The 48, a select group trained to sustain mankind. On their first mission, they are sent back in time to the English court of Henry VIII to prevent the king's marriage to Jane Seymour. When several mishaps occur on their mission-a fellow Asset accidentally travels with them, death threats appear, assassination attempts are made-Alex and Charles quickly realize that someone is trying to prevent them from succeeding in their mission. Award-winning author Hosie is back with a historical fiction novel for young adults, similar to her Return to Camelot series. Told from the three perspectives of Alex, Charles, and Lady Margaret-a lady's maid to Queen Anne Boleyn-the story borrows heavily from history to intertwine fact and fiction into one fascinating tale. Once acclimated to the alternating perspectives, readers will be completely captivated by the mystery and history in this adventure and swept away by the thrilling suspense. Grades 9-12.
