The son of the Raven grapples with a relentless adversary set on dismantling everything meaningful in his life.

Dane Ashcroft, challenged by his father's long-time shapeshifter enemy, is gifted a ghost protector from his powerful witch mother. Fortunately, the ghost protector is not only a former detective from the days of Jack the Ripper but also the most successful shapeshifter hunter of his time.

With his new protector, Dane finds himself looking over his shoulder for his enemy while trying to solve a case with his detective partner that might just involve an unbalanced killer brought back from the past. And in the middle of his drama is a generational love triangle with the enchanting Lark, whose affection he is determined to win.

With the future of his parents—Murdoch, the legendary Raven, and Sophie, the fated witch—hanging in the balance, Dane's decision to reveal his own formidable abilities may change the course of history itself. Will he rise as the hero his lineage expects, or will he have no choice in his destiny?

Meet the Paytons: antique dealers, time travellers, mystery solvers. All in a day's work.

Gideon Payton—eldest twin by sixteen minutes—inherited a unique ensorcellment: he can slip back into the past. Perfect for an antique dealer... especially one who only recently sailed out of London, 1886, and into the strange new world of the 21st century after a shipwreck tore his family apart. The Paytons left their grief and 150 years behind – or so they thought.

Timeless Treasures, their charming antique shop in modern day Australia, is known for finding relics nobody else can and when a desperate client asks them to locate a missing heirloom, Gideon, his twin, Theo, and talented, sassy genealogist Holly Hunter start with its last owner – the fifth and final canonical victim of Jack the Ripper. Time-hopping just turned lethal. But never let it be said that the Paytons turned down a challenge.

Timeless Treasures, the Payton family’s prestige antique shop is known for validations and finding rare relics. But when a disaster-memorabilia collector requests authentication of a jewellery piece from the Titanic, the Payton brothers are divided. The seller swears it belonged to his great-great-aunt Emma, a maid on the Titanic who survived, but a descendant of Emma’s employer accuses her of stealing the piece as the ship went down—and demands it back.

Gideon Payton, eldest twin and inheritor of a time travel ensorcellment, can slip himself—and anyone he chooses—back into the past. A handy charm for an antique dealer. His brothers want to find proof; Gideon wants none of the icy fate awaiting Titanic’s maiden voyage.

But will they talk him into joining Emma aboard RMS Titanic in 1912? Time travel has a cost, and this particular crossing might be too higher a price to pay.
