To survive the Union deserters and his grasping, widowed sister-in-law, Ben needs Frankie's quick thinking and never-give-up attitude that comes from her independence as a 21st Century woman. But can the two lovers span the centuries between them and find a common future?

In deepest winter, beware the coldest hearts . . .

London, 1850. Constance Horton has disappeared and her sister Maude is determined to find out what’s happened.

She discovers that Constance has disguised herself as a boy and boarded a ship bound for the Arctic, but when the ship returns without her the truth about her fate is buried by sinister forces.

To find answers – and deliver justice for her sister – Maude must step into London’s dark underbelly, and into the path of dangerous, powerful men. The kind of men who seek their fortune in the city’s horrors, from the hangings at Newgate to the ghoulish waxworks of Madame Tussaud’s.

It is a perilous task. But Maude has dangerous skills of her own . . .

It took what seemed but half a day's traveling to traverse the 28,000 years that separated Loto Rogers from the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. He had expected to find mighty cities and a flowering civilization in that future world, but instead he found only ice and snow -- and Azeela.
