EASTER ESCAPADE

by

Kathi Daley

In the first ever crossover episode, Zak and Zoe join forces with Hawaiian visitors Luke and Lani, to find out who killed a historian visiting Ashton Falls in order to find a treasure map left by his grandfather a hundred years earlier. Meanwhile, Ellie and Levi move in with Zak and Zoe while the boathouse is being renovated and Alex helps Ellie prepare the nursery for baby Eli who is due to be born any day. Throw in some humor and Easter fun and you have a Zak and Zoe crossover mystery.

Book Beginnings on Fridays is a meme hosted by Rose City Reader

Share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading

My Book Beginnings

The sun shining through the bedroom window gave evidence to the fact that it was going to be a sunny spring day. I glanced at my husband, Zak Zimmerman, who was snoring softly beside me before slipping quietly out of bed.

The Friday 56 is a meme hosted by Freda's Voice

Rules: *Grab a book, any book. *Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader (If you have to improvise, that's okay.) *Find any sentence, (or few, just don't spoil it) that grab you. *Post it.

My Friday 56 

Okay, that was surprising. What was the man doing out on the lake at six o’clock in the morning?

“Given the timeline,” Ethan continued, “do you think ____ ___ ______ is actually the one who killed him?”

“____? No. Why would you say that?”

Ethan didn’t answer, but I thought he must be sorting things out in his own mind. “I don’t know,” he finally said. “I guess I’m just tired and looking for answers. The alteration in the timeline has me imagining all sorts of strange scenarios.” 

GOOD LUCK!
