Here's where Jessie is going after Across Time
Second Time Around
Jessie goes back to Elizabethan England as pirate Captain Spencer Morgan. Spencer is trolling the seas looking for a box that Francis Drake is also after. This box, as we discover later in the book, was once buried by Lachlan and contains the recipe for the transmutation of lead into gold. Jessie deals with Queen Elizabeth, Francis Drake, and we see Cate and Maeve again.
Third Time's a Charm
Jessie is called to the past where it all began:ancient Egypt, when pharaoh Akhenaten ruled and tried to change the religion in Egypt. There, Jessie is Sakura, a priestess of Isis, who is trying to save the religion. Jessie's attentions are split because Daniel, her little brother is being haunted by spirits living in the Inn. These ghosts in Daniel's room are from a family that was killed in the Inn long ago:a family whose father was an Egyptologist. Jessie must uncover the mystery of the ghosts before she can help Sakura save the life of Queen Nefertiti.
Just Killing Time
Jessie is called back to the 16th century and finds that it's 15 years since she last saw Spencer. He has called her because Duncan's son has gone to help Mary, Queen of Scots escape from prison and Queen Elizabeth has put a warrant out for his arrest. On the open seas, Spencer /Jessie run afoul of one of the most famous female pirates in history, Grace O'Malley. With Grace's help, they are able to find Barclay, and help ease the pain of the death of one of history's greatest Queens.
In the Nick of Time As the Guardian of the Gate, it's Jessie's job to protect the portal, but the one person she did not expect to use it, gets lost in time: her brother, Daniel. To save him, Jessie must deal with the Sidhe of the Otherworld and make a deal with them. They want her to protect Merlin's daughter from Queen Mab, and if she does that, they will tell her where in time Daniel is: Viet Nam during the Viet Nam War. Jessie must find a way to save Daniel before he is killed in Viet Nam, and she must save Merlin's daughter or lose more than just her brother. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
