In book six in the Time for Alexander series, Ashley and Alexander travel by dragon boat to the far north to the land of the Eaters of the Dead in order to stop a certain druid, the Thief of Souls, from irrevocably changing time. With Alexander's soul and Paul as his prisoner puppet, the druid hopes he can stop the Roman legions from conquering Europe and thus change the course of time. But Ashley knows that will not happen without the mysterious Time-Senders erasing all their lives. In order to save herself, her children, and the men she loves, she has to find the druid's lair, and somehow get Alexander's soul back into his body.
