Book Description:
Seventeen-year-old Gavin Hillstone is
resigned to being miserable for the rest of his life. Left alone in the world
after his parents died in a fire when he was four, he was placed in foster
care, which for him meant ending up in an abusive home with an alcoholic
adoptive father.
Gavin’s only escape is in taking and creating images. His camera is his refuge
from the unending torture and isolation of daily life in his “family.”
Until he learns by accident that he isn’t alone in the world after all. His
father’s parents are still alive and living in Washington DC.
When he takes the plunge and travels 3,000 miles to find his grandparents, he
learns that they—and he—are part of something much bigger, and more dangerous,
than he could ever have imagined. Something that has always put his family at
risk and that will now threaten his own life, while forever changing it. 
He learns that he is one of the last descendants of a small group of Photo
Travelers—people who can time travel through through photos and images. But his
initial excitement turns to fear, when he soon discovers that he and his
grandparents are being pursued by the fierce remnants of a radical European
Photo Traveler cult, the Peace Hunters. What Gavin has, they want!
His adventure will take him to past eras, like The Great Depression and the
Salem Witch Trials. Gavin will have to discover who he really is and must make
choices that spell the difference between life and death for himself, for the
relatives he now knows and loves, and for the girl he will come to love.
For Gavin Hillstone, life will never be the same.
The Photo Traveler is young adult author Arthur J. Gonzalez's first novel. Arthur was born and raised in Miami surrounded by his loud Cuban family. He graduated from the University of Florida, where he aquired his coffee obsession and his chocolate hoarding antics. He's the proud father of one baby girl, Sookie- his miniature schnoodle dog. Arthur is a self-professed goofball who spends 98% of his life laughing. He's now working on his second novel.
