The Planar Pages
Life flourishes in the Book, a world of stacked realms spanning the ages, like the pages of an epic chronicle. Each page opens to domains evoking the glory of ancient empires, the passion of the Renaissance, or the adventure of court intrigue. Those who can travel between them are page turners, blessed with the power to go from one page to the next.
For investigator Fiona Thorne, turning the page is normal life. Solving mysteries is where the excitement lives. No case is too small to ignite her curiosity, no page too familiar to explore. She is determined to leave her mark in the Book, no matter where her cases may lead.
Whether unravelling conspiracies in an Elizabethan-like kingdom, outwitting sly cutthroat panthers on Roman seas, or navigating intrigues in a Venetian realm of canals and secretive fae, Fiona follows clues through page after page.
But a new mystery is emerging that could threaten the Book itself. To solve her biggest case yet, this daring page turner must chase leads across fantastical realms, track a clever foe through worlds of wonder, and brave untold dangers to protect the place she calls home.
Come for the world-building and mysteries. Stay for the delightful characters whom you’ll root for time and time again. This series is definitely a page turner.

what readers are saying
Between the Lines is a cozy mystery set in a fantasy world. The world itself is kind of a character with all the various “pages” the main must visit to solve the mystery. She’s a great character, an investigator in a hostile environment, someone with a big heart. She isn’t perfect as we see as the story advances. She might be forced to give up on some of her biased opinions about a certain organization before the end of the book. These biases led to some red herrings that are well done. I loved the side characters as much as the main. True imagination and fun rolled into one book. If you like mysteries, fantasies, cozies of any type, give it a look! 5 stars. I’ll be reading the second soon.

This was an adorable romp! I love how it started with a mischievous cat and an intriguing old lady next door … and it beautifully started the world building that I’ve loved so much in the rest of the series.

This book had me hooked from page 1 — I loved the world building, the characters, and the concept. Was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Keep the hits coming, D. Hale Rambo!!!

I loved this book! Takes place in SPINE, part of a book filled with a fantasy of worlds and characters within the pages of a book. Fiona, the lead character, is a private investigator winding her way thru the pages to solve adventurous cases. I can’t wait to see where Fiona and her band of friends take me next! You will not be disappointed! I received a free copy of this book via The History Quill Book Club.
