Wrath Of The Grinning Ghost (1999) - Plot & Excerpts
He was with us when we went back in time to Constantinople, but after we got back, he disappeared." Professor Childermass crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair. The light from the window behind him made his white hair glow almost like a halo in a picture of a saint. A crabby, red-faced saint. He cleared his throat and said, "Well, John, you remember Aurelian Townsend, the inventor of the Time Trolley, and how he took his blasted contraption back into the past. As for me, I had had my fill of time traveling. You may not know, though, that Mr. Townsend visits me from time to time. On his first visit I asked him to take Brewster's statuette back to Egypt, around the year 3000 B.C., and drop it off in a nice little temple. I knew Brewster would enjoy being worshiped as a god far more than he would be willing to endure being gawked at as an exhibit in a museum." "But now Brewster's come back to the present," said Johnny. "How did he manage that without the Time Trolley?" Professor Childermass tapped his chin with his finger.
