When survival depends on the stories we tell.

Martha's Vineyard 2022: While writing a novel, Peri stumbles upon a mysterious history that imperils not just her existence, but also that of her daughter. This discovery plunges her back in time to the Mohawk Valley during the tumultuous days of the French and Indian War.

Mohawk Valley, 1757: Peri and Daniel embark on a mission to save her ancestor in a world brimming with danger and deception, where enemies spring out of the wilderness without warning and the constant threat of an imminent large-scale attack looms over the valley. Everyone seems to harbor secrets and spies lurk around every corner.

Intrigued by the enigmatic tales of an old German widow, rumored to be a witch, Peri begins to suspect these tales hold deep secrets. When Daniel goes missing and Peri is captured by Mohawks, her grasp on history—and her fate—begins to unravel. Time is running out. As destiny draws near, Peri finds strength in the magic of storytelling and learns profound truths about the power of belief.

The Time Captive is a haunting novel where the history of "Last of the Mohicans," meets the magic of "Grimm's Fairy Tales," and the adventure of "Outlander: Drums of Autumn.”
