Synopsis

About the Author, Brendan Carroll

Brendan Carroll was born and raised in Southeast Texas, finally ending up in the beautiful Texas Lake Country. Throughout his scholastic career, he wanted nothing more than to tell a good story, get a few laughs or give a few frights. After high school, he joined the US Navy and spent the next four years serving the country in the fighter training squadron VT-86 out of Pensacola, Florida. In college, he majored in Environmental Science and Geography with a minor in Geology and ended up with a teaching certificate for Secondary Earth Sciences. After one year of teaching fourteen and fifteen-year-olds, his desire to inspire young minds was laid to rest and he took up a position serving the State of Texas in the Correctional Field. In his spare time, he has produced over thirty novels which are currently being published in Kindle format as well as paperback at a much slower pace.

In a five-star rating system, this plot deserves a six. Elisse Manheim, armed only with extreme intelligence and an extensive knowledge of Wolgang Amadeus Mozart embarks on a thrilling ride as she leads her own investigation into the murder of one of her ex-students. With an intellect and education on Mozart to equal her own, Elisse has met her match in William Masters, a composer sequestered away in the cryptic Left Field facility that is now her new employer.

This book stole my heart and didn't let go. The gliding whimsical tale of what if in so many ways. I can't believe it took me so long to write this review, but now that I am (a year after reading the book), I still love this book. Time travel, corrupt societies, classical music, and even a swamp or four thrown in for good measure. Seriously. You can't do better in a book in the science fiction/fantasy genre.

This author had me at time travel but he kept me with the music and romance an
