Summary
Daniel McFarlane makes a trip to New Zealand with his mother to meet his father, Doug McFarlane for the first time. Doug has remarried and has a second family none of whom are as interested in meeting Daniel as he is them. Nevertheless, Daniel becomes very much entangled with his new family because of an old mirror, found in the attic of their house. The mirror has mysterious qualities which enable the children to travel back in time to the goldfields of the 1860s. There they make friends with Constance de Luttrelle, who lives with her family in the same house they do, just in a different time. Daniel, Fegus and Mandy become involved in the life and times of their new friend, as she does in theirs; and they must all overcome their personal problems and conflicts in order to keep the mirror in the right hands.
