On the surface, Henry and Clare Detamble are a normal couple living in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. Henry works at the Newberry Library and Clare creates abstract paper art, but the cruel reality is that Henry is a prisoner of time. It sweeps him back and forth at its leisure, from the present to the past, with no regard for where he is or what he is doing. It drops him naked and vulnerable into another decade, wearing an age-appropriate face. In fact, it's not unusual for Henry to run into the other Henry and help him out of a jam. Sound unusual? Imagine Clare Detamble's astonishment at seeing Henry dropped stark naked into her parents' meadow when she was only six. Though, of course, until she came of age, Henry was always the perfect gentleman and gave young Clare nothing but his friendship as he dropped in and out of her life.

Did illustrator Si Morley really step out of his twentieth-century apartment one night -- right into the winter of 1882? The U.S. Government believed it, especially when Si returned with a portfolio of brand-new sketches and tintype photos of a world that no longer existed -- or did it?

A thrillingly imagined rollercoaster of a novel bursting with sex, time travel, and true love. Charlotte Schleswig, the delightful narrator of Liz Jensen’s latest novel, supports herself and the lumpen Fru Schleswig (who may or may not be her mother) as a prostitute in 1890s Copenhagen. While she is no small success at the trade, she leaps at a new job opportunity for herself and Fru Schleswig, as cleaning ladies for the wealthy widow Krak. But mysteries abound at Fru Krak’s dark old mansion. The basement appears to be haunted, townspeople claim to have seen the dead Professor Krak walking the streets as a ghost, and there are stories of desperate souls who paid the professor a visit and never emerged. In fact, as Charlotte will discover, there is a simple explanation for all this: the basement is home to a time machine. When their cunning investigations land them in trouble, Charlotte and Fru Schleswig find themselves catapulted through time and space to modern-day London, and there their adventures truly begin. With the minxy, intrepid Charlotte, Liz Jensen introduces a heroine every bit as memorable as Louis Drax. And with My Dirty Little Book of Stolen Time, she delivers yet another outlandishly entertaining novel, in which the seemingly insurmountable obstacle of spacetime proves no match for human ingenuity and earthly passion.

Dougless Montgomery couldn't believe it.  She had tried to be the very essence of the modern American woman -- competent yet sexy, financially independent yet ready to love and be loved.  She had planned this holiday tour with special care, wanting everything to be perfect for Robert, the man she hoped one day to marry.  Yet here she was, after a stupid quarrel, abandoned in a church in the midst of rural England.  Abandoned, with no luggage, no money, no credit cards, while Robert drove off without so much as a backward glance.  As Dougless lay upon a cold tombstone, crying in fury and frustration, she longed for a knight in shining armor to save her from this abysmal mess.   Suddenly, as if in answer to her prayers, the most extraordinary man stood before her.... He was Nicholas Stafford, Earl of Thornwyck, who according to his tombstone had died in 1564.  Tall, broad-shouldered, attired in gleaming silver and gold, he was magnificent.  He stood in the dim light of the church, thunderstruck, drinking her in:  her strange costume, the uncased hair that flowed to her shoulders, her long, lovely, BARE legs.  He could scarce keep his wits about him, but of one thing he was certain -- she was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen.   Drawn to his side by a bond so sudden and compelling it overshadowed reason, Dougless knew that Nicholas was nothing less than a miracle:  a man who would not seek to change her, who found her perfect, fascinating, just as she was.   Yet she could not imagine how strong were the chains that tied them to the past... or the grand adventure that lay before them....
