Threads of Time

Wilda Firestone suffers no fools. And the seasoned retiree refuses to be tempted by the thrill of time-traveling shenanigans and instead buckles down to train her clueless new protégé. But when a bomb reduces the time machine next door to ashes and reduces her life's work to rubble, the angry woman takes on a dangerous investigation... Ignoring her own battle scars from past time-hopping adventures, Wilda convinces her trainee to jump to 1850s France to lure the elusive terrorists out of the shadows of history. But when their malfunctioning contraption dumps them hundreds of miles away, the savvy agent fears something far worse is out of whack in the time stream. Can she unravel this mind-boggling mystery before it's "off with her head?" is the snark-infused second book in the Toronto Time Agents science fiction series. Brace yourself for witty banter, nail-biting intrigue, and historical escapades that will make your head spin. If you crave witty characters, whiffs of conspiracy, and a lively romp through history, then C. N. Jackson's rollicking adventure is a must-read.
