Book Description
A trip to die for - a luxury cruise on the newly restored Osprey. But for Norris Beacham it comes with a price. His great-uncle, the captain, is trying to lure him into the family business. Norris isn't interested in that plan - or in the rich old fogeys aboard, all of them investors in the refurbished yacht. He's miserable - until he meets a girl of his own age, city kid Merle Devereaux. Merle claims that she's seen a ghost on board. Norris thinks she's crazy - until he sees the ghost himself! It warns them that they're headed for a disaster, just like the one that sank the Osprey half a century before. Can they learn the secret of the haunted ship before fate strikes again?

Strong enough to follow Hadley home. Strong enough to threaten her friends. Unless Hadley can unlock its terrible secret, this won't just be her first job - it'll be her last.

Book Description
TWO NOVELS OF TIME-TRAVELING ADVENTURE. Includes Time Scout and Wagers of Sin. When an experiment on an orbiting space station went wrong¾bad wrong¾ripples in time washed over the Earth bringing global disaster. The survivors, beginning to rebuild, learned that they were now able to travel into the past, utilizing the remnant time strings. But first, the time strings had to be mapped. That was the job of the brave pioneers known as time scouts. Their occupation was only slightly less dangerous than front line combat, and when it was discovered that a time traveler who wasnt extremely careful could zap himself out of existence, elaborate rules to prevent that evolved, and it was the job of the time scouts to enforce them. Time Scout: Kenneth _KitÓ Carson was one of the best, if not the best, time scouts in the business. But he has collected more than a few scars, both physical and mental, while poking around back in time, and trying not to draw the dangerous attention of the natives, not always successfully. Nowadays, he runs a small hotel at Time Terminal 86, and just wants to be a hotelier renting rooms to tourists on their way to see the Roman Circus Maximus or Victorian London firshand . . . until a cartain red-headed girl flounces out of his life through an illicit gate that may collapse and leave her lost eternally in the corridors of time . . . Wagers of Sin: Time Travel stations have become big business, with wealthy tourists taking vacations back in time. For Skeeter Jackson, one of Time Terminal 86s least honest residents, scamming those tourists is a way of life. A mans got to follow his calling, even a con man, and Skeeter might be a dyed-in-the-wool thieving scoundrel, but he freely admits it and relishes the crisp, cool feel of cash in hand¾until one of his scams went terribly wrong, and he was in more trouble than even his quick wits and crooked tricks could get him out of again. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
