      Paris, 1874: an artist's model is murdered and a wealthy socialite posing for her portrait is stalked by an unknown assailant. Normandy, 1956: a young widow inherits a house and finds eight old paintings with a mysterious note that claims they're clues to a crime. But how did they get there? Two mysteries from different ages, the clues connected yet riddles remain. The cast of characters span a century-from a pompous detective, romantic artist, wealthy socialite, and famous racehorse, to a Nazi colonel, young widow, ambitious jockey, and retired policeman. A Crime Through Time is a puzzle with pieces that don't quite fit, a tale of intrigue, honor, and deceit, where lies are truths, fact is fiction, and nothing is ever quite as it seems.

      A Crime Through Time
    • Lady Gabrielle is captured at a French convent and taken to an English castle, a prize for Sir Michael Marston. Her lover, Montague of Rouen, allies with English barons plotting to overthrow their king. As England drifts into civil war, Montague attacks. Minerva, a powerful witch, casts a spell on Marston and Gabrielle, joining the two as one. Montague fights with passion never seen before or since, and the castle begins to fall. Wrought with doubt, defined by desire, Gabrielle is forced to choose. With whom will she spend eternity: Sir Michael Marston or Montague of Rouen? A romance thread through a world of war, fantasy fused with fiction, Song of Gabrielle is the tale of a woman who loves two men. Riddled with hexes, potions and spells, bound by love and honor, it defines the heart and all it holds, as well as the forces that try to control it.
