Between the Lines (The Planar Pages Book 1)

Fiona Thorne is an investigator in the Book, a world composed of stacked realms spanning different historical periods—from ancient empires to the Renaissance to court intrigue. Those with the ability to travel between these realms are called page turners. Fiona solves mysteries across the Book's pages, driven by curiosity and determination to make her mark. When Blaze, the page of fire, begins to deteriorate due to fire elementals being smuggled away in large numbers, Fiona takes on the case. Despite resistance from the Travel Guild, which governs the Book, she races to identify the smugglers and stop them before the fire page and its creatures disappear entirely. As she investigates, she must determine whether the case holds deeper secrets than initially apparent. Between the Lines is the first book in a fantasy mystery series featuring immersive world-building, intrigue, and a cast of characters. The story combines found family themes, cozy elements, and adventure set within a historical framework.
