Fifteen Postcards - McKenzie Kirsten

History shapes those who travel through it

Following the unexplained disappearance of her parents, and to save the antiques store she has inherited from ruin, Sarah Lester takes on a deceased estate. A jumbled collection of vintage postcards then lead Sarah on a journey through time.

Unprepared for the stories these postcards weave about their reclusive former owner, they complicate Sarah’s life in unimaginable ways, transporting her to Victorian London, colonial New Zealand and to the British Raj in India.

Traversing three continents and two centuries, filled with murders and mysteries, the past draws Sarah into the enigma which could solve her parents’ disappearance; forcing her to question if she should stay or go. An impossible question to answer the longer she stays in the past.

“Part time travel, part historical, and part antique review. Sarah’s adventures are well researched and entertainingly written. This is a very striking debut novel.” —Historical Novel Society
