Everyone in Lake Potawatomi, Wisconsin, knows Teddie St. John. Tall, curly-haired Teddie is a superb baker, a bohemian bon vivant, and a mystery writer. Teddie is walking her American Eskimo dog, Gracie, when her four-legged friend finds Teddie’s missing silk scarf. Only problem: the scarf is tied tightly around the neck of a beautiful blond woman, the fiancée of a touring British author.
Before you can say “Wisconsin kringle,” Teddie becomes a murder suspect. Everyone in town knows all too well that the distinctive scarf was hers. But there are more layers to this case than there would have been on poor Kristi’s wedding cake.

by Clark Graham

A new enemy has arisen, far more sinister than any the Time Gods have faced before. With the ability to find and kill them no matter where they are, the Time Gods band together for protection. When one of their own goes missing, they go on a rescue attempt with no regard to their own safety. This time, instead of a group of fanatics, the Time Gods are fighting the ruler of an entire planet and his massive army. A ruler who seeks the very extinction of the Time Gods.
