The Escape

Beware of doorways through time… and the Spaniards.

Amelia and Henry thought their time-traveling days were over. All they wanted was to settle down, adopt a cat, and enjoy a quiet life in modern-day Virginia.

Ha. As if.

One accidental stroll through a ship’s doorway—and a rip in the space-time continuum—launches them straight into the chaos of the 1690s. Separated once again, each must survive in a world where pirates rule the waves and betrayal lurks behind every powder keg.

Henry joins a crew bound for Spain, hoping to find his way back to Amelia. But when a shady business deal turns into a royal double-cross, the crew is sold into service—and Henry is swept into mutiny, a pirate uprising, and the legendary voyage of Henry Avery aboard the Fancy.

Meanwhile, Amelia finds herself broke, stranded, and facing down shady lords, French smugglers, and an underground fashion racket involving—of all things—illegal hats. As she scrambles to earn coin, help friends, and avoid Spanish authorities, she discovers that finding Henry might be the hardest adventure of all.

Pirates. Fortune. French hats.

And absolutely no idea how to get home.

The Time Writer and The Escape is a swashbuckling, time-twisting historical adventure packed with humor, heart, and high-stakes hijinks. Will Amelia and Henry reunite? Will they find another portal? Or are they doomed to live out the Golden Age of Piracy one misstep at a time?
