THE BLUE LOTUS SOCIETYáA traveling exhibit of Egyptian artifacts is threatened by thieves. Pinkerton agents, including Ess Fremont, are assigned to protection duty. The thefts of artifacts around the world makes this a priority mission, not just for the sake of antiquity but for diplomatic reasons.áA midnight vigil in the Smithsonian InstitutionâÇÖs warehouse brings Ess face-to-face with the reason behind the thefts -- and the two groups seeking what is hidden within the artifacts.áEncountering her missing grandparentsâÇÖ allies, Ess has a chance to reclaim her heritage. The question is if she wants to. Athena Latymer and the members of the Blue Lotus Society arenâÇÖt being honest with her. How can she join a battle affecting the entire world when she doesnâÇÖt understand the reasons for the war? There is more to the Blue Lotus Society than protecting Egyptian history and culture.áAs the exhibition crosses the country, Ess approaches the tipping point, when her decision could be made for her. Who can she trust? Who is lying to her and using her? Even for the chance to be reunited with her brother, Uly, she isnâÇÖt quite ready to commit herself to an organization full of secrets.áThen the enemy strikes far too close, and she discovers that making the right choice canâÇÖt always wait until all her questions are answered.áThe Guardians of the Time Stream: set during the reconstruction of the United States in the decades following the Civil War.áTechnology is on the rise, with locomotives and steam-powered industry, airships and other experiments in slightly anachronistic technology. A fascination with travel around the world and the exploration of other cultures, especially ancient cultures, is on the rise.áThe Guardians, who call themselves the Originators, are descendants of travelers from our far distant future, who traveled into the distant past to prevent another group of time travelers from altering the world to suit their vision. And as Ess Fremont grows up and learns her heritage, her familyâÇÖs history and their secrets, she takes her place in the battle to protect the world.á
