The Time Tsar: Book Two in the Tales from Apple Island Series - Paperback

by Hilary a. B. Lambert (Author), Linda Healey (Editor), Frank Muller (Illustrator)

Six months following the autumnal events in "Ten Thousand Secrets National Park," springtime has returned. Dr. Tom King, now the USA's Time Tsar, is disturbed by his first meeting with the country's new President, who wants to make big money by plundering the past. In Washington, D.C. Senator Liz Max (D, CA) and her staffer Ravi Sen-Ellis are equally concerned about King's secret military plans for altering the past to augment the USA's present-day global control.
Eco-terrorists Janet and Lena are called out of hiding to hunt for a lost friend in Pleistocene Kentucky while Maeve, the exiled Irish fairy queen who lives in the hills of the PA-NY borderlands, emerges from a healing winter cocoon into the cold springtime.
Things warm up when friends Brian, Harris, and Rita get involved to protect Maeve's hidden upland valley from Tom King's military plans and the President's Russian-sponsored invasion. Bureaucrats, scientists, and environmentalists scramble for control, while nature and the supernatural push back. The year is a very shaky 2017.
