The Die is Cast
Book 3 in the award-winning History Detective Club™ series
The Revolution promised liberty—
but only for some.
When Rose and Nathaniel return to 1775 Williamsburg, rebellion is no longer a distant whisper. The governor has fled. Militia gather in the streets. And rumors are spreading fast—enslaved people may be granted freedom if they join the British.
One wrong move could change the course of history.
With Lord Dunmore’s proclamation threatening to turn Virginia upside down, the friends face an impossible choice: stay silent and stay safe… or risk everything to help someone claim the freedom they’ve been denied.
From secret forgeries to daring escapes, The Die Is Cast reveals the true cost of liberty in a world where freedom is not evenly promised—and courage isn’t always rewarded.

Tidings of Liberty
Book 4 in the award-winning History Detective Club™ series
Christmas in Williamsburg: warm fires, cold nights, and a secret that could change history.
When thirteen-year-old Rose Leonard slips on the enchanted pearl necklace that links her to eighteenth-century Virginia, she’s swept back to December 1776. A winter filled with candlelit windows, the scent of ginger cakes… and the harsh realities of wartime. Food is scarce, soldiers are exhausted, and the Revolution is testing everyone’s courage.
Rose, Nathaniel, and Pearl stumble upon three young Continental Army deserters. Real boys with real fears, desperate enough to risk everything for a chance at survival. Helping them could cost Rose her safety… and put her friends in danger. But turning her back on them would betray everything the season stands for.
As Rose races between past and present, she must navigate her own changing family: her dad settling into Richmond, her mom’s new relationship, and a best friend who suspects she’s hiding something big. Bridging those divides may be her hardest mystery yet.
With the heart of Christmas woven through every page, Tidings of Liberty is a story of compassion, courage, and seeing others with new eyes.
Perfect for young readers who love the time-travel magic of Magic Tree House, the rich history of American Girl, and timeless mysteries like Nancy Drew. A story that captivates both young readers and adults, making it the ideal choice for bedtime reading adventures you'll both treasure.

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

Together with her friends Nathaniel and Pearl, she must solve mysteries that could change the course of history.
