Publisher's summary

Searching for antiques in the North Georgia foothills, the Holloway sisters never expected to discover a bony hand protruding through the ground—or an antique watch that would spiral them through time.

From USA Today, Amazon best-selling author Casi McLean comes another gripping time-travel mystery to keep you hugging the edge of your seat.

To Raine Holloway, the idea of time travel existed only in fiction—until her antique shop search leads her to Abingdon Manor, an abandoned property in the North Georgia foothills. When the old barn loft collapses beneath her feet, the fall reveals an antique watch that changes Raine’s life forever. Determined to discover the owner of a skeletal hand, Raine and her sisters refuse to accept the police chief’s lack of interest in the cold case. They continue to investigate, unaware the watch will assist them by spinning them through time to 1960.

Can Raine and her two sisters unravel the secret of an antique watch’s power, solve the murder, and find their way home—before Raine becomes the victim buried at Abingdon Manor?

Time travel, a solid mystery, and great characters

I enjoyed going back to Lake Lanier in another time travel mystery by Casi McLean. In this one, the Holloway sisters-Raine, Meadow, and Summer-are searching for relics in the North Georgia foothills when they discover an odd watch and a skeletal hand. While examining the watch they transport themselves to Three Sisters Island in Lake Lanier in 1960. There they meet a woman who claims to have invented the chronometer and warns them not to change the course of history. This interesting mystery presents time travel in a very believable manner. There is no time machine or mystical portal but a rather scientific chronometer. It reminded me somewhat of the TV series Timeless where the characters prepared for their travel to make sure they had the proper clothing and money. Since the show the time Tunnel in the late 1960s I have been fascinated by the possibility of time travel. I love seeing history presented in this manner. I look forward to the next 2 books in this series. Thanks to the author for giving me a copy of the audiobook. Amanda Stribling did a good job with the narration and presented the sisters in a believable fashion.

Three sisters exploring time travel

Book 1 of an innocent enjoyable time travel series. While it seems to target a young audience, it is great reading for all ages. If listening to the book, the reader reads too fast, especially in the beginning.

These three sisters are inseparable and on their own. Raine has an antique shop and fills it with timeless treasures she finds in several ways. Mostly the three of them look on the beach, in old caves, or as they go exploring.

This wonderful find is an antique watch-looking device that lights up and can be programmed and give them hologram images of happenings in the past. At the same time they find the watch they also find a shallow grave with bones.

Once they accidentally go back to 1960, they begin an adventure of unraveling the mystery of the bones, why the watch sent them back to this era, where the gold they find came from, etc.

Timeless Secrets, Raine is an adventurous, clean mystery. Fun and at times fast-moving. There are twists and turns you don’t expect as well.

Magical Time Travel Mystery

I enjoyed book one of the "Three Sisters Island Mysteries". Raine found an antique watch which opened up a portal through time. After Raine and her sisters stumbled over the hand of a skeleton, the three decided to use the watch to figure out what had happened to the hand's owner. I liked the three sisters and their interactions. There were some humorous moments as the contemporary women navigated the times of the past. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Amanda Stribling's narration was fine, and her performance kept my attention. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Finally, time travel that doesn’t seem too hokey

For the first time, in quite some time, I was surprised by a time travel book. A lot of the ones I’ve seen have been quite hokey and forced. Ms. McLean scores for plot, scene, structure and character.

I’d like to thank the author for a lovely story and for giving me a free copy of this book in exchange for my HONEST review.

Sisters, book 1

Raine, Summer, and Meadow are sisters. They accidentally find a skeleton and a mysterious watch, which can send them through time. The watch seems to have a reason for when and where they are sent. I love time travel stories. This was a well written short mystery. I feel I finished the story too soon, and was eager to get started on book two of the series. The narration was well done. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Okay narration, slow-paced, dull story...

This read wasn’t for me—not bad, per se, but ‘good’ isn’t a word I’d use either. I was bored and had to force myself to pay attention, having tried 2 different formats (both audiobook and eBook). It just felt bland to me, never gripped me and didn’t hold any excitement.

A lot of words and time would pass by with no actual plot-progress. I’m ont sure if this would be better were someone with better writing skills to have a go—or whether it just really wasn’t for me/ isn’t an exciting plot but … at any rate, just too slow-paced for me.

“It’s okay” which equals 2 or 3 stars depending on the platform.

Audio:
The audio was decent with overall sound quality being professional and the narrator mostly doing a good job. 3.5 stars on this front.
