If you like historically accurate depictions of various topics that might take you all over the world and through different periods of time, this book is for you. There is no intended relation between the subjects chosen other than that the author herself wondered about another explanation for what had actually occurred: a supernatural one. This is historical fiction with a supernatural twist, with the exception of the first story. The first story is dedicated to one of my older sisters, Iris Lynne, who always wanted me to write scary stories that would hold one’s attention when learning factual history, especially if one’s mind tended to wander off into the fictional areas of the supernatural. She loved my purely non-historical fictional story. The other stories, which move around the globe and through time to discuss such things as Cleopatra’s little sister, Harriet Tubman’s Underground Railroad, Balboa, Percy Shelley, President William Henry Harrison, and the Pendle Witches of England, should be fascinating!

The author is a doctor of dentistry with three master’s degrees and two bachelor’s degrees in science, one of which is from the UC Berkeley College of Chemistry. She is both a Noyce Scholar in Mathematics and a descendant of the American slave trade. She came from a middle-class family of all girls, born in Montgomery, Alabama, during the Civil Rights Movement but was raised in the quiet, predominantly White town of Hayward, California. As a scientist who has visited every continent except Australia and the poles (she believes), she is very curious and educated.
