The Antiquarian Chronicles


Book Description

In "The Antiquarian Chronicles," Lee Styles, a young, wealthy antiques dealer from Charleston, and his attractive research assistant, Jennifer Aquilon, use a combination of Lee's unique visions and Jennifer's thorough investigative skills to trace the history of a valuable, one-of-a-kind rifle from the Civil War era. An air of superstition and bad luck hangs around the rifle as Lee and Jennifer uncover more and more of its past, finding out that it might have once been used as a murder weapon. Lee's and Jennifer's budding feelings of romance contend with their desire to focus on their work as they traverse the country together, tracking the rifle's historically rich trail through the late 1800s and early 1900s, all the way up to the present day. Author Jerry Watson has crafted a suspenseful and riveting tale in "The Antiquarian Chronicles" that will appeal to lovers of history and antiques, and even some hopeless romantics.

Ever since Ceyla Ward, seer and supernatural detective, disappeared in a flash of green light five years ago, chaos has fallen on the magical world of Helios. Some blame her for the disasters that befell the land after she left. Others dismiss Ward’s effect on the events that followed as mere chance. Many were just relieved that she was gone—dead, they hope. And then there are those who simply want her home. Five years after the rising of Demons and the beginnings of the Helios Civil War, her betrothed Avery Holt, her brother Eran Nordskov, and her adopted father Michael Ward continue to try to reach her through letters, messages, and emails about how Helios was faring in her absence—even as they hold on to the hope that she comes home soon. Because there are just some unsolved murders that cannot be laid to rest too easily.
