Out of Time

Time stops for no man, but it paused for one unusual woman.

She thought she was invincible. She was wrong.

Anna Scott should be dead. Instead, she fed her dog and went to work, just like she had every day for the last six centuries.

When someone murders one of her companions, she sets out to settle this vendetta. As the clues build up, her unnatural life begins to unravel and her past returns with a nasty surprise.

Careening between the false calm of small town America and the treacherous mountains of the Scottish highlands, she attempts to grasp the forces that govern reality before a sadistic inter-dimensional gangster finds her. If she gets it wrong, everyone on Earth will pay the price.

Out of Time is the exciting start to Anna’s quest to untangle the mysteries of the universe one headache at a time. If you like strong women, dark humour, and cutting action, you’ll love the first instalment of Cherie’s out-of-this-world series.

This novel uses British spellings as well as informal words specific to parts of Scotland and England. A glossary of regional words and phrases is included at the back of the book for reference.

Out of Step

Doctor Anna Scott only wanted modest comforts in life, but fate doesn’t give a figs-ear for personal preferences.

One random chance left Anna with six centuries of questions, a large fortune, and a tool that controls all the particles in the Universe. You’d have thought such Godly power would come with a few instructions. You’d be wrong.

All she does know is she needs coffee — lots of coffee — and that her new partner, Anthony, is as baffling as all the other dead ends she’s run into over the years.

On her first solo relocation, a malicious poltergeist disappears without a trace. Although her life has always been chaotic, Anthony’s declaration that the failure is because Anna is darkness incarnate is the cherry on the cake of her worst day ever.

That’s before the inter-dimensional gangsters arrive.

Out of Step is the exciting continuation of Anna’s quest to untangle the mysteries of the universe one headache at a time. If you like strong women, dark humour, and cutting action, you’ll love the second instalment of Cherie’s out-of-this-world series.

This novel uses British spellings as well as informal words specific to parts of Scotland and England.

1392 Into the Storm

Discover Doctor Anna Scott’s origin

If you could live forever, would you want to?

On a wind-swept island, a cry of plague runs through the desolate hamlet of Ravenser. One might easily think another outbreak of the Black Death after the great floods would be the most horrendous things that could ever happen to a town on the brink of oblivion. But a fleeting shadow convinces the town priest the corpse is evil, and the malevolent Baron takes the widow into his care.

Although Barber-surgeon Julieanna can do nothing to save the beautiful Isabella from the clutches of the Baron, she refuses to allow the superstitious villagers to throw the corpse into the sea. She knows his death was just an accident and is determined to prove it. Little did she know it was the worst decision of her life.

Reviews

I have just finished reading “Out of Time” by Cherie Baker. Words almost fail me. I enjoyed it so much and look forward to more of her work. A skilled writer and story teller. I admire Anna greatly and must say that I have fallen in love with Vlad. (and I am not a dog lover) Most enjoyable book to read.

I have just finished reading “Out of Time” and thoroughly enjoyed it. Intriguing story with plenty of action. Vlad is my favourite character!
