RETURN TO A VANISHED WORLD, in this new edition of the beloved time-travel thriller:

Extensively researched, filled with real but still unknown tales of history, FORWARD TO CAMELOT takes readers on a grand adventure, filled with danger, deceit and real-life heroes.

October 2000

Soap-opera actress Cady Cuyler knows she is not brave, adventurous or accomplished; that’s Sheila, the glamorous EMT she plays on TV. But too many other people think she’s Sheila, which Cady doesn’t understand: Recently divorced from her agent, Cady’s life consists of playing Sheila and providing a safety net to her mother Sandra, who has hardly noticed her since her birth; she’s still lost in grief over the disappearance of her husband years before in Dallas. Cady’s deepest wish is to somehow earn her mother’s love and attention.

When a profound tragedy alters her own life and her job abruptly ends, Cady is offered the chance of a great adventure: She agrees to recover the Bible owned by JFK, which was used to swear in LBJ as president, on November 22, 1963, the same day her father, whom she idolized, disappeared forever. To do this, she must travel back in time to the Dallas of 1963, a dangerous world filled with dangerous secrets, and meet the man with the most dangerous secret of all–he plans to assassinate President Kennedy during his upcoming visit to Dallas.

For the first time in her life, Cady, the armchair adventurer, can live an adventure more exciting than anything Sheila ever did. She might even change her own destiny… if she dares.

Time can be altered. Lives can be altered.

History can be altered…

5 out of 5

This was absolutely fascinating, and I enjoyed every moment of reading it, cover to cover. It’s an interesting premise, and well-carried out. The book opens with a heart-racing scene, but we’re only given a very short respite before we watch as Cady’s life is upended, and you learn the heart-breaking circumstances of her life. In Cady’s shoes, I think I would’ve also made the leap back in time, if for no other reason than to get a chance to find out what happened to my dad, and for the slight possibility of finding out how true the conspiracy theories are. Of course, changing the future through the past isn’t easy, and Cady is facing down some serious obstacles. It’s easy to get caught up in her story, and you quickly realize just how strong, resilient, and resourceful she is as a character. Cannot recommend enough, especially for fans of time travel and family drama.

John gazed around the room. “I don’t believe history is written in stone. I think if you add or take away certain elements—well—you’d have to be looking at a whole different outcome. Not the big events,” he said hastily. “I don’t mean you could stop a war or anything, but if your father hadn’t disappeared, your mother would have been a lot happier, wouldn’t she? I mean, that’s why she—why things happened the way they did.” He seemed to be having trouble presenting the idea, and it made me like him. “If you could prevent your father’s disappearance, then your own life could be—” He gave me a quick glance, and I felt as though he knew every heartache I’d felt in the last 20 years. It was exhilarating, it was extraordinary… it was frightening.

I thought of Mel telling me I could fly on my own.

I thought of the lack of opportunities that awaited me elsewhere.

I thought of this man who had dropped into my life, the first one in years who had aroused any feelings in me that could be called passionate.

I looked at him, and I could feel a warm, inviting smile stretching across my face. I had a direction. I had a plan. I had a chance—which is all we can ever ask. “All right,” I said. “Where do I sign?”

John’s face lit with relief, and Mel, seeing that smile, began to sing “Fly Me to the Moon”.
