Publisher's Synopsis
Mackenzie Mortimer is a typical junior high geek. He's shy, awkward, a bit clumsy, late with his homework, and always late for class. There's never enough time to do everything he needs to do; after all, there are only 24 hours in a day. But when Mac finds his grandfather's pocket watch buried deep inside a trunk, he discovers his days have an extra hour. According to the eccentric inventor's journal, the pocket watch can add up to 60 minutes to a single day by freezing time around whomever holds the watch and presses its button.
Marlene Prentice is Mac's best friend, but he's clueless the tomboy has a crush on him. Mac only has eyes for the foxy Vanessa Carlyle, daughter of the richest man in town.
When a crisis looms for Mac and his friends, time is running out... but fortunately, Mackenzie Mortimer has a few more minutes than anyone else.
