Book Description
Alice K. Lambert is the owner of Lambert House, an elegant totally ADA-compliant bed-and-breakfast on Maui. She recently promoted her assistant Kaleo to manage the inn. This allows Alice to travel extensively and to increase her advocacy for victims of domestic violence and people with disabilities. Before beginning an adventure in Colorado with her young nephew, Stefan, Alice rents a cabin for a week in Estes Park where she attends a mushroom identification workshop. Her friend, Trish, on the run from her abusive and stalking ex-husband, also attends the workshop with her two protective brothers. They learn how to ID the many mushrooms from the area. Two mushrooms that look alike to most people are the honey mushrooms and the deadly Galerina Autumnalis. The group learns subtle visual differences and learn how to do spore prints, which provides a more definitive identification. Alice soon suspects that Trish's ex-husband is staying in a cabin near her own. Trish's brothers verify this and so they go on the road once again to escape him and Alice leaves for Denver to join her nephew for their trip. Several days later, Noah Dennison, Trish's ex-husband was found dead in his cabin, where the bedroom was set up with chains and shackles to supposedly restrain Trish. Soon it is deemed to be murder. Trish becomes the prime suspect, and Alice is determined to prove her innocence.

Book Description
“One cool novel. If the Tardis were a Ford Model A , this might be Doctor Who meets National Treasure.”—F. Paul Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of the Repairman Jack series “GET IN THE CAR, MR. TEAGUE. THE ROAD BECKONS.” The traveler sped through Eli Teague’s life long ago. With her tricorne hat, flintlock rifle, and steampunked Model-A Ford, she was a living anachronism, and an irresistible mystery—and she was gone as soon as she arrived, in a cloud of gunfire and a squeal of tires. So when Eli sees her again, he’s determined that this time, he’s going to get some answers. But his hunt soon yields far more than he bargained for, plunging him headlong into a dizzying world full of competing factions and figures straight out of legend. To make sense of the secret at its heart, he must embark on a breakneck chase across the country and through two centuries of history—with nothing less than America’s past, present, and future at stake. Praise for Paradox Bound “So good you’ll want to invent time travel and send a copy back to yourself, just so you can read it again for the first time. A tour de force.”—Jason M. Hough, New York Times bestselling author of The Darwin Elevator “A timey-wimey, full-barrel adventure novel that also teaches a nonironic lesson in American civics . . . [featuring] an epithet-wielding, pistol-packing heroine that will capture hearts.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “A fast and resonant time-travel thriller and tour of America, bursting with fun ideas.”—Django Wexler, author of The Shadow Campaigns novels “Lively, likeable, and wonderfully amusing.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
