Another Flip for Dominick

Two years after his journey into the past, Dominick Hide has been promoted to instructor, and is no longer a time-traveller. Then one of his pupils, Pyrus Bonnington, goes missing during a visit to 1982 London. Hide must track him down and prevent Pyrus damaging the past, but will the temptation to re-visit his own history be too strong to resist?
