1884 No Boundaries:
A Story of
Espionage, and International Intrigue
by A.E. Wasserman
Love,
murder, sex, and terrorism swirl within a collapsed world economy.
No,
it’s not today.
It’s
London, 1884.
Recently
married Langsford, born of wealth and privilege, is bound by the restrictions
of Victorian society. Dynamite has been invented, but the term “homosexuality”
has not and men can be arrested for either.
Langsford
accompanies his visiting friend, HEINRICH, eighteen, who innocently flirts with
young ANNA at London’s Leadenhall Market.
What
should be the end of the story becomes the beginning, for Heinrich falls in
love with her, never part of the plan. Instead it becomes the catalyst for
everything that follows when he flees Germany to return to her. Events unfold
that expose terrorists, espionage and international intrigue.
Langsford
walks a fine line as he crosses boundaries he never imagined, rubbing elbows
with spies, killers and would-be assassins to save his friend, stop an
assassination, and prevent a war.
“Wasserman’s writing is
atmospherically rich. Very strongly recommended.” – Historical Novel Society,
London, critical review of 1884 No Boundaries
1886 Ties That Bind: A Story of Politics, Graft, and
Greed
It is 1886 as Englishman Lord Langsford travels by
train to San Francisco. Newly widowed, Langsford is desperate to escape his
grief, demons, and life in England. As Langsford completes the last leg of his
transcontinental journey, his life unexpectedly changes once again when he
crosses paths with Miss Sally Baxter, a beautiful rancher who packs a pistol in
her purse.
Sally has made it her mission to find the men who
robbed a train and killed her brother. Unfortunately, no one—not even the
owners of the Southern Pacific Railroad—seem to care. Unable to resist her
pleas, Langsford offers to help Sally and soon becomes entangled in a web of
politics, corruption, and greed. As murder, threats, and attacks ensue that
endanger both Sally and Langsford, influential men in both California and
Washington, D.C. jockey for positions of power. Langsford, who finds himself
oddly attracted to Sally, now must sort through criminals and politicians alike
to discover the truth behind her brother’s death and prevent his own murder.
“The
author has woven a complex net of intrigue and background to the murder that
makes the entire book so much more than just a mystery. As the title
appropriately states, this deals with issues of politics, corruption and greed
in a very accomplished way. One of the best books I’ve read in a long time.
Highly recommended.” – Christoph Fischer, UK Reviewer Discovering Diamonds
1885: Crossingsby
Anna’s
hand holding the letter trembled as her vision rocked, going in and out of
focus. She felt as though she was falling backward and at the same time rolling
forward, expecting to land face first on the floor. She put her hand on the
table to brace herself. She no longer heard the song birds in the buckeye tree
outside the window, or the hoof beats on the cobblestones passing the front
door, or any sound at all.
The
world around her ceased to exist—only the paper with Henry’s written words: his
own account of what happened during the past year.
The
entire time, she’d known he wasn’t telling her everything—but this—she could
never have imagined any of it. The hard fact was, Henry will never escape the
truth.
“1885
Crossings gives us another opportunity to return to the world of Henry, Anna,
and Langsford. A.E. Wasserman’s writing is beautifully done—tense and
uncomfortable. The ending gave me a chill.” -Chuck Sambuchino, Bestselling
