For fans of the Harry Potter Universe, LOST, and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. A tale of immigrants, Eternals, a little girl and the fate of the world... The Water Chronicles series uses a "parallel" storytelling structure in which two separate-but-related plot lines, taking place in radically different eras, Ireland and the Endless Stream picks up right after the events of its preceding book in the series, India Rose and the Eternals, which saw a parallel set of stories being told. The first was about a group of immigrants coming to America at the turn of the last century on a secret mission by their order to confront one of their own (a certain Thomas Edison) about his reckless exposure of the secret that they guard. The Station Master (the code name for Leonardo da Vinci, who is alive and well hundreds of years after his supposed death) and his apprentice Finn are chased across the ocean by those who desire to discover the source of the long life "The Eternals" have.

For fans of the Harry Potter universe, LOST and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children: What if that really was the Mona Lisa that India Rose saw walking around her small, Maine town? What if her father's innocent bedtime stories of hidden mysteries below the river and secret identities of ordinary citizens were more than mere fairy tales? Why did her essay on her town's history make a few select town officials so angry? And why was young Finn and his master (who bears more than a passing resemblance to Leonardo da Vinci) sent across the sea to the new world on a mission to protect "the secret" that his order has been charged to guard? Told over the course of almost one hundred years and multiple continents, India Rose and the Eternals tells the parallel stories, told in concurrent chapters, of twelve-year-old India Rose and two-hundred-and twelve-year-old Finnegan Rufus Magondolovich (don't ask him about his middle or last names) who are both struggling to understand the upheaval in their own little worlds. Add to this the sinister Man In The Brown Hat and his shadowy organization, who are chasing Finn and his master across the globe, an oil spill that threatens India's coastal town, a stern Head Librarian who seems to have it in for India, and India Rose and the Eternals packs enough adventure and hairpin turns to keep readers turning pages. With strong themes of using your gifts and abilities for the good of others and the rise, use and abuse of technology, India Rose and the Eternals is the opening salvo in the expansive Water Chronicles universe, a series that takes contemporary notions of history and re-examines them.
