Plot
When Jo Tiegan is shopping with her father in 1995, she notices an antique shop which she feels a compulsion to go to. There she sees a beautiful oval mirror, which she is given by the elderly owner of the shop — who comments that the mirror is meant for her. Jo is delighted, and the mirror is placed in her bedroom. That night, Jo is stunned to see the image of another girl in the mirror, instead of her own reflection, and it is obvious that the other girl can see her just as clearly. Jo and the other girl, Louisa Iredale, are able to 'introduce' themselves to each other by writing their names down for the other girl to read. After Louisa is called away to dinner, Jo is accidentally pulled through the mirror into Louisa's bedroom (in the year 1919). This leads to the discovery, by Jo and Louisa, that they can visit each other's times, through the mirror, any time they want to do so — provided that the mirror is situated in exactly the same place and that the mirror's alignment and orientation are identical within the mirror's frame, at corresponding moments in 1919 and 1995.
In 1919, Louisa's father is a New Zealand politician, and their family house is a mansion with servants. Jo, the daughter of the Australian school principal at a New Zealand school, lives in a school residential building which happens to be the same house as Louisa's family home, and the girls also even have the same bedroom as each other, although the room's decor for Jo in 1995 is totally different to the way the room's decor is for Louisa in 1919.
When Jo and Louisa meet, there is instant rapport between the two girls and they become firm friends, and life changes for them both as they become caught up in a web of intrigue.
Following Jo's unexpected journey through the mirror, a hazardous situation occurs during an archaeological dig in a well at Jo's school, when a container they discover in the well is damaged and two of the students working nearby are accidentally sprayed with toxic waste. The affected students become extremely ill, and, when it is discovered that the container has the date 1919 on it, Jo is worried that her friends' sickness is her fault because of going through the mirror to 1919.
