Reviews:
★★★★★ I love time travel and Casi McLean infused the narrative with a dash of paranormal from the beginning. The mysterious hotel at Salem, with its enigmatic owner and the ghost tours, created an otherworldly aura. The time jump put the characters in the middle of a battlefield, and I waited with bated breath to find out how they would circumvent this ordeal. McLean presented seventeenth-century Salem realistically, complete with the clothing habits and dialects of the period. The heroines' desperate attempts to speak in a dated language and the old-timers' reactions to modern-day outfits and gadgets provided some relief from the tension. With a plot filled with adventure, women's solidarity, and a slight hint of romance, Timeless Treasures captured my heart. I recommend it to those who have enjoyed Michael Crichton's Timeline or Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series.––Shrabastee Chakraborty for Readers' Favorite
★★★★★ As I have come to expect from this author, the tale envelopes the reader from the start, creating hooks that draw you in, seeking the answers to the unusual events painted in the reader’s mind by McLean’s words. McLean’s talent, not just for creating believable characters you root for, but for providing the backdrop for the story in a very credible fashion such that even readers unfamiliar with history, quickly accept the mental images the writer creates, which in turn adds an amazing amount of depth to, what were, real and almost inexplicable occurrences, specifically the famed Salem Witch Trials of 1692. And, what I thoroughly enjoyed, the fine brushstrokes the writer employed to establish and maintain the unsettling atmosphere in which she plunged the reader from early on in the narrative. ––Enrico Grafitti
★★★★★ This is book #2 in the Three Sisters Island Mysteries and it’s a outstanding time traveling mystery. With every book I read from this author, they just keep getting better and better, and Timeless Treasures, was no exception, I couldn’t put it this one down. The story flows flawlessly, the characters are real, with depth, strengths, and flaws, and the storyline will keep you guessing and turning the pages. I can't recommend this book enough, I absolutely loved it.––Jennifer H. Ong
Thrust into 1692 Salem, Summer Holloway must discover why the time portal spiraled her into her haunting dreams before a hysterical town hangs her for witchcraft!
Description:
From USA Today and Amazon Best Selling Author, Casi McLean, comes another gripping time-travel mystery to keep you hugging onto the edge of your seat.
A hologram on Three Sisters Island whisks Summer into the past where she meets Sydney Monaco, a twenty-first century private investigator who experienced a similar anomaly. To discover where they are––and when––she convinces Sydney to hike through the dense forest...until they witness the gruesome lynching of a young woman.
When the mob leaves, they rescue the victim, but the girl confirms Summer’s greatest fear. How can she convince Sydney the ancient Celtic amulet not only transported her to another location, but it also swept her back in time to 1692 Salem––in the middle of the most histrionic witch hunt in American history.
Summer must discover why the portal thrust her through time into her haunting dreams before a hysterical town hangs them for witchcraft. With no chronometer, she is forced to rely on Sydney’s untested amulet to pluck them from their own lynching and take them home––but the artifact plots its own destination…
Can Summer find a way back to the twenty-first century before time runs out?
*** Though Summer’s story is book two of Three Sisters Island Mysteries, the story stands alone, and draws in Sydney Monaco, a popular character from Casi’s #1 Amazon best seller, Virtually Timeless. Fans will love the twists, turns, and hooks they’ve come to expect from this author.
