About the History Detective Club
About the History Detective Club
What if you could travel back to the moment America was born?
If you’ve ever strolled down Duke of Gloucester Street in the quiet moments—early morning before the crowds arrive, or in the soft blue dusk when the day has finally cooled—you may have felt it.
That flicker of a dream.
That whisper that maybe, just for a heartbeat, you’ve slipped backward in time.
When I worked as a costumed interpreter in Colonial Williamsburg, I lived for those moments. And one night, I had the kind of experience you never forget.
A fog had settled over the street after I had lead an evening of lantern tours. The shops were dark. The air was still. I gathered my cloak and walked alone down an empty Duke of Gloucester Street, the world hushed around me.
Then—footsteps.
Out of the mist came a man in breeches and cloak, a tricorn hat shadowing his face. As he passed, he tipped his hat and said softly,
“Good evening, my lady.”
And just like that, for one heartbeat, the centuries melted away.
That single moment became the seed of a story of a girl named Rose who finds herself slipping between her modern life and 1770s Williamsburg, uncovering mysteries from the earliest sparks of revolution.
If you’ve ever wished you could experience Colonial Williamsburg the way it feels in your imagination, quiet, alive, full of secrets, this series brings you there.
History Detective Club is historical fiction woven with time travel, real events, hidden letters, secret codes, and the living world of Revolutionary Virginia.
If you’ve ever dreamed of walking Duke of Gloucester Street and feeling time bend around you…If you love Colonial Williamsburg, living history, hidden corners, old taverns, candlelit windows, and stories where the past still feels alive… I wrote these books for you.
📚 The Series
The History Detective Club: American Revolution brings America’s founding to life through the eyes of three friends separated by centuries—but connected by courage, curiosity, and a secret that transcends time. When Rose discovers a mysterious pearl necklace hidden in her Williamsburg home, she’s thrust into 1774, on the edge of rebellion, danger, and revolution. Together with her friends Nathaniel and Pearl, she must solve mysteries that could change the course of history.
Perfect for ages 8–14 and for fans of Magic Tree House, I Survived, and American Girl, but are ready for the next reading challenge.
