Torn by Margaret Peterson Haddix
Still reeling from their experiences in Roanoke in 1600, Jonah and
Katherine arrive in 1611 only moments before a mutiny on Henry Hudson’s
ship in the icy waters of James Bay. But things are messed up: They’ve
lost the real John Hudson, and they find what seems to be the fabled
Northwest Passage—even though they are pretty sure that route doesn’t
actually exist. Will this new version of history replace everything
they’ve ever known? Is this the end of time as we know it? With more at
stake than ever before, Jonah and Katherine struggle to unravel the
mysteries of 1611 and the Hudson Passage...before everything they know
is lost.

Arctic Drift
Arctic Drift by Clive Cussler and Dirk Cussler
Oceanographer Dirk Pitt traces a lost ship's mysterious cargo to a
scientific discovery that could reverse the dangers of climate change in
this novel in the #1 New York Times-bestselling action adventure series.
When an act of sabotage aims to slow down a technological breakthrough in American clean energy, it puts the United States on the brink of war with one of its closest allies. Tension boils on the homefront, too, as gas prices surge to an all-time high. To prevent global catastrophe, Dirk Pitt and his children, Dirk Jr. and Summer, must piece together what little records remain of the initial experiment. They may not know how it was done, but they know what their scientists were trying to accomplish: a solution for global warming.
Their only real clue might just be a mysterious silvery mineral traced to a long-ago expedition in search of the fabled Northwest Passage. But no one survived from that doomed mission. And if Pitt, his family, and his buddy Al Giordino aren't careful, the very same fate may await them…and the world. (From Amazon.com product listing.)
