I’ve always been fascinated by dual timeline books. Usually, these stories take place in two different time periods, one of which influences the other. Often present-day characters find letters from the past in an attic, and in finding out about the person who wrote the letters, begin their journey for their own HEA.
My sale book this month, Postscript, is a dual timeline story. Part of the story is set in the present day, in which Mason comes to a small town to discover what happened to his great-great uncle, Lewis, decades ago.
Lewis’s part of the story takes place in the time leading up to WWII, and in the aftermath of his experiences on the battlefield.
I enjoyed discovering Kedgetown and its inhabitants, who are a mix of paranormal and psychics, and it soon became clear that the town, and its magical bookshop, has more stories to tell.

Kedgetown Book 1
A magical bookshop holds the keys.
When Mason Chynoweth inherits an old house in small-town New Zealand, he hopes to discover what happened to his great-great uncle Lewis after he returned from the war in 1945. Mason’s first encounter with the property is thankfully reassuring—his sensitive psychic powers aren’t triggered and he has a calm sense of coming home.
Elijah Whitaker arrives in Kedgetown for an extended visit with his aunts. He’s quickly drawn to Mason and offers to help him try to find some answers in the dusty old house. It soon becomes clear that Mason is keeping secrets, but Elijah has a few secrets of his own. Like his closely guarded knowledge of the hidden supernatural world, and the fact that many of the townspeople are psi and supernaturals.
What is the connection between the house and Postscript, the town’s enigmatic bookshop? Mason’s glimpses of the past give some clues, but not enough to make sense of the puzzle.
When a hidden journal comes to light, the true story of Lewis’s journey is revealed, and his path and Mason and Elijah’s begin to intertwine.
