Their grandfather's farm has always been a magical place for eleven-year old cousins, Liam and Samantha. Even before the wormhole in the woods transported them to the magical world of Nelliah where they encountered a variety of magical creatures with special powers, they'd known the farm and surrounding area was unlike any other place they'd ever been. In book two, Walking the Plank, the adventure continues as Liam and Samantha's day on the river turns tragic as they find themselves in a different place and time inhabited by ruthless pirates living life to the fullest on the open seas. After being rescued from the treacherous waters by Captain Edward Thrash and his crew, they settle in quickly to life aboard the Queen Anne's revenge where Liam earns his keep swabbing the deck and Samantha as the ship's cook. Under the watchful eye of Captain Thatch and his faithful companion, Stede Bonnet, the cousins learn not everything is as it seems as they navigate through a place and time where the good guys aren't always wearing white and the only gold the cousins encounter lies within the heart of a cranky, old pirate. Will they once again find the mirror and walking stick that opens the channel between the worlds and find their way home? Or will they be forced to remain aboard the ship with the pirates and survive on their own? It's an all-out battle of good versus evil aboard the open seas, one not soon forgotten as the Place Where Magic Lives continues in Walking the Plank.

Have you ever considered what it might be like to go back to another place or time? If you could what event or events might you like to participate in or be witness to? How might you, a child of technology, adjust to a world without indoor plumbing, public transportation, conventional foods like ice cream/pizza, and many other conveniences so easily taken for granted. That's exactly the predicament US Marshal Devon McKenzie and NYPD Chris Gates find themselves in after a routine prisoner transport from NYC to Washington State goes horribly wrong as they pass through the countryside of rural Nebraska canvased against the night sky of the Aurora Borealis. The fascinating tale In The Town Time Forgot: Turbulence begins in New York City when U.S. marshal, Devon McKenzie and NYC Detective Chris Gates end up transporting a well-known prisoner along the interstate. The two officers have never gotten along and are squabbling when their prisoner is forcefully removed from them en route during a night when the Aurora Borealis is at its brightest. The van they are driving is wrecked and the officers are injured. They spend the next three days surviving in an isolated wilderness area. When they come upon a farmer, he takes them back to his house, where they are shocked to discover they have been transported back in time to 1869 Nebraska. The farmer and his family wrongly assume the two are married, so Devon and Chris play alone until they can figure out what happened how they can get home.

Crossroads (Town Time Forgot)

Follow the story of Shay Montgomery, a field nurse from central Kentucky, who finds herself in the heart of the battle for Justice and uncovers conspiracies that stretch all the way to the White House. It's an age old story of good versus evil and wrong versus right. The challenge, however, is that things are seldom as they seem. And what do you do when, no one is really interested in the truth? What if you aren't sure who is evil and who's not? What do you do then? On a cold night in April 1865, the steamboat, Sultana, exploded in the engorged Mississippi River carrying over two thousand Union soldiers who survived the infamous Andersonville prison. There were more casualties that night than the ill-fated Titanic. Yet, little is known about the details of her sinking. Some say it was a defective boiler and others suggest it was a coal torpedo planted by a group of Confederate sympathizers. In addition to the nineteen hundred soldiers aboard the Sultana, there were several women with the Christian Commission and other civilians; many of whom perished. No one was ever held accountable for their deaths. Instead, the event was overshadowed by the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, who himself may have had an unknowing hand in the unfolding of the tragedy.
