THE INVISIBLE HAND will be published on February 24th and is now available for pre-order. The first three chapters are available on INSTAFREEBIE and a Good Reads Giveaway is now underway.

THE INVISIBLE HAND is the story of Sam, a boy at a boarding school, who travels back in time to medieval Scotland and becomes involved in the plot of Shakespeare's Macbeth. There he meets Leana, a girl, who manages to travel forwards in time to the school.

"Time travel, Scotland and Macbeth? Oooh...yes please!!! I love all three to tiny pieces and was totally interested when I started reading this book. The story takes place at a boarding school in Britain where the main character, Sam, has basically been dumped as his parents are either too busy working or too ill to look after him. One night, Sam awakes to find himself in another person's body and in the middle of a Scottish battlefield. Is it a dream? Will what happens in the past affect the future? I really liked Sam! The poor thing...I just really wanted to give him a million hugs throughout the story, especially as more was revealed about his family. He was shy, adorable and quite brave considering the circumstances that he constantly found himself in. There's a scene where he finally makes a connection between his own time traveling and the events in Macbeth that made me smile. He shouts out about how he was there and everyone thought he was absolutely crazy. And why wouldn't they? But that just endeared him to me even more. Super cute! I am interested in seeing how the author will mix in the other plays. I also just realized there's a prequel set at the school during World War II called Heart of Winter. Gothic tale about the macabre? OK! Let's do this..." ~ Jacquie Atamanuk, Rattle The Stars

The middle one asked "wow, rude and deaf...what a combo" I said "listen bitch, I don't know who you are but you better watch out" I felt my fists clenching at the mention of the word bitch.You want bitch? You got it.*****There's only one word that can be used to describe Isabella June Evans and that is mysterious. Behind her smile is a sadness, her bright eyes hide the void within her. No one knows. No one sees. Behind closed doors, she fights but on the outside, she's a 17-year-old who isn't afraid to speak her mind. Fortunately (or unfortunately) for her, it's her rosy pink lips, pale skin, black hair, feisty attitude and the secrets she hides behind her eyes that attract them and rope them in until they can't let go.
