Since the book is the first of a multiple book series, it doesn't necessarily have an overarching resolution. A comparable equivalent would maybe be the reveal of all the information about these childrens' pasts, but that only plunges them right into another quandary.
In Margaret Peterson Haddix's book, the resolution of the conflict typically involves the main characters finding a solution or compromise to the challenges they face. Whether it's uncovering a hidden truth, overcoming obstacles, or uniting against a common enemy, the resolution brings closure to the conflict and often results in growth or change for the characters.
A conflict in the book is an external conflict, and is man vs. man. Jonah and Katherine (with the help of JB through the Elucidator) have to protect Chip and Alex. Chip and Alex have to pretend that they are dead because of how history was supposed to play out, but without actually killing them. They blend in with their tracers (which are ghostlike boys) to know what the Edward V and Richard are thinking. This helps them know how to talk and who everyone is.
Since the book is part of the series, there isn't much of a resolution before the story jumps right back into the sequel. Andrea/Virginia Dare is put where she is supposed to be in time, but with Second's manipulation, the time ripples are going out of control, which is something that will be addressed in the next book, Torn.
