The teen angst hits the fan as Mark Daley slides to the brink of a breakdown, pushed by the troubled Tre. Shaped in the kiln of his violent past and drawing fights to his friends in the present, Mark struggles to escape the idea that he may be the cause of all his own problems. But running won’t cure the decay threatening to plunge Woodvale High back into war with itself. The time has come for Mark to decide who he wants to believe and act…even if the wrong choice could fracture the SK Crew forever.

The third Children of Woodvale volume received the least post-release editing of anything in the series (until I started integrating it into Epiphany, anyway), but it had the longest production cycle (at least until I started volume four) as I struggled to keep my plan for an “inverted Donovan’s Gauntlet” from turning into a “retread of Donovan’s Gauntlet”. I was working with a narrow but meaningful difference in Mark’s emotions relative to the first volume, and I’m proud of what I eventually accomplished here. The most notable change I made to The Arc of Time when I started publishing under the Hushed Forest Entertainment umbrella in 2013/2014 was make the text on the cover and spine easier to read from a distance.
