Charlotte, called Charles, is outraged! How can anyone be as pliable as Marion, her mother? And then it happens: One morning after an argument Charles suddenly wakes up in Marion’s teen room. Charles jumped back to the past and finds herself in the presence of her fifteen-year-old mother! Marion wears ugly dungarees, swims naked and goes with the flow in the wild Eighties. At first Charles is bewildered – then she’s fascinated. Will she ever make it back to the future? And does she really want to?
