Previous SFF Author: John Moore
Kelly Moore is a former lawyer, a New York Times best-selling author, and a single mother of three. She co-wrote the true-crime work DEADLY MEDICINE, which went on to become a New York Times best-seller for seven weeks, and also a NBC TV movie-of-the-week. An inveterate collector of Americana, she has a deep connection to the flotsam of the past cast up upon our further shores. Her latest project, AMBER HOUSE, co-written with her two daughters and based loosely upon her own family history, examines eleven generations of Maryland women and their ties to the past, present, and future.
Amber House by Kelly Moore, Tucker & Larkin Reed
Do you like haunted old houses with tangled histories and lots of secret passages? If so, Amber House is the mother lode. This is the kind of book where the heroine figures out there’s a hidden staircase because, while it’s nowhere to be seen in the house itself, a dollhouse based on the real house does have a staircase in that spot. If this appeals to you — and it definitely appeals to me — you need to read Amber House.

As Neverwas begins, it becomes clear that Sarah changed more than just that. The entire United States is different from the one we live in — in fact,
