Gwendolyn Shepherd Collection

Gwendolyn Shepherd is a regular 16-year-old girl annoyed that her family definitely has too many secrets, all having to do with the time-travel gene that's passed down through their family. Everyone is certain that Gwen's cousin Charlotte has the gene, so everything is all about Charlotte, all the time. Until the day Gwen, out of the clear blue sky, suddenly finds herself in London at the end of the 19th century. She knows right away that she, and not Charlotte, was born to be a time traveler--even if she could do without it, just as she could do without Charlotte's arrogant boyfriend Gideon de Villiers, with whom she now must forge an alliance in order to clear up the biggest secret of her family history. One thing is clear: she will do everything possible to solve the ancient mysteries. What isn't clear is that one should not fall in love between the times: that would REALLY complicate things.

Gwen has just discovered that she's the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of Twelve. Now she must juggle with constant trips to the past, her relationships with Gideon, and figuring out dark secrets surrounding the Circle.

After the events of Sapphire Blue, Gwen is heartbroken and confused about who she is and what the real powers of the Raven are. Not knowing who they can trust anymore, Gwen and Leslie try to figure out what nefarious plots the Count has up his sleeve with help from a sassy gargoyle. Using her personal chronograph, Gwen attempts to discover the tightly-knit secrets the Lodge has been keeping. Will Gwen be able to turn to Gideon in her time of need, or is her mistrust in him justified enough to separate them forever?
