A real adventure!
Traders in Time is my first book in the Dream Quest Series and was a wonderful experience to write. As a historical researcher, I found the French Colonial/Native American histories were wonderful to study. For sixteen years the fur trade period of North America has been a favorite for me. Meggie (LaFramboise) , a real life, female fur trader has always held a great fascinated for me. When I was given this wonderful opportunity to write a book based on the fur trade I wanted to include this character. While researching for this book, I canoed over 2,000 miles in a simulated birch bark canoe, tracing the routes of the fur trades (I still continue this research today.) I have studied with traditional Native American Indians, learned what it was like to cross large areas of open water during storms in a canoe, sleep on the cold sand under a canoe, eat moose sticks, and in my dreams at night, travel back in time.

"Chris scoffs at his younger brother's enthusiasm for collecting rocks-particularly one Nick thinks is shaped like a turtle-and generally thinks that the eight-year-old is something of a wimp. But Chris's attitude is dramatically changed as the brothers suddenly find themselves trapped at dusk in a deep forest with eighteen-century fur traders. With the help of his turtle warrior rock and his new friends, Meggie La Framboise and her assistant LeClaire, Nick saves Chris from the clutches of an evil trader named McDougal. But the boys' adventures have only begun as they flee from McDougal to an Odawa Indian camp and then on to Mackinac Island. Traders in Time vividly portrays the variety of people involved in the fur trade and brings to life the sights, smells, and drama taking place along the shores of Lake Michigan and at Fort Mackinac in the late 1700s."
