Door to Door - Door to Door Paranormal Mystery, #1 - E-book - ePub

Seventeen years after Emily Swift's father died, a door is opened to a new world, an Empire led by peculiar men and women called Salesmen - transporters of magical items. These Salesmen have the unique ability to travel from place to place, and even world to world, simply by stepping through the "right" door.  Now that Emily is 30, it turns out that she can "door travel" too, stumbling unplanned into kitchens, bathrooms, and alleyways as her connection to the Salesman Empire is revealed.
Fueled by the cryptic notes and sketches in her late father's journal, Emily discovers the real reason behind his death: he was assassinated by the Fringe, a terrorist group of rogue Salesmen.  After an attack leaves an innocent woman dead, a rare book containing clues to the whereabouts of the Crimson Stone is missing. Time is running out, and Emily races against John Templeton, the mysterious Salesman with extraordinary abilities, who seems to help and undermine her at whim.
Can Emily find the magical gemstone before Templeton? Can she bring a killer to justice?  In Door to Door, book 1 in the series, you'll find:  A flawed yet loveable heroine A sexy, morally gray antagonist A cast of quirky characters Portal travel Magic mixed with a fun and fast-paced adventure A satisfying ending * Fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Alice in Wonderland, I Love Lucy (Lucille Ball), and the comedy found in Janet Evanovich's early Stephanie Plum books will love Emily Swift and Door to Door! * What readers are saying:  T.
L. Brown's debut novel is a gem that sparkles with wit, colorfully crafted characters, edge-of-the-seat suspense, and just the right amount of humor.  Door to Door has the flavor of a fairytale that's been masterfully seasoned for an adult's more sophisticated palate.  This story reads like an incredibly clever Alice in Wonderland retelling while being something all its own too. Readers will enjoy the quick pacing and sharp dialogue, as well as a cast of memorable characters who will keep you guessing as to whose side they're on.  Think Agatha Raisin meets The Chronicles of Narnia.
