Synopsis,
This story may have happened before, but this time, it begins on a cold and dreary Thanksgiving Day in the beautiful Victorian house of the Logan family, located in the upper-class neighborhood of Concord, Massachusetts. That night, the Logans welcomed their new son, who had been born a couple of weeks earlier and had a distinctive birthmark on one of his arms. They named the baby Andrew and called him Andy. Even though they were impressed by the perfection of his birthmark, they thought it was a simple sign of good fortune without imagining that it was a unique mark, the mark of the chosen one to save the realm of Ethernia (A parallel magical world, which secret entrance can be open it using a music box hidden in the attic of the Logans house.)
On Halloween night, a few weeks before his 16th birthday, Andy receives the unexpected visit of two dwarfs from the realm of Ethernia, the same ones he believed were the product of his imagination (They came to protect him when he was seven years old, but disappeared months later, to avoid people thinking he was acting crazy since he was the only one who could see or hear them). They returned to prepare Andy to face his new destiny, which was about to begin on the night of his 16th birthday. So, helped by Chester (his sixteen-year-old dog and gatekeeper), they unburied a mysterious leather bag from the rose garden of his house. A leather bag that was buried there by the same dog the night Andy was born. They found a note (Riddle) and a small black box inside the bag. By Andy’s birthday, he and his two small friends had solved the riddle written on the note. Consequently, they could open the small black box and find a golden key. This key opens an old music box hidden in the attic of the Logans’ house. Inside this box are the two enchanted rightful rulers of Ethernia and carved the magic words that open the portal to this fantastic world. As Keymaster, Andy is charged with three complex tasks: to save this world from its evil ruler and break the music box’s spell.
Follow Andy in this fantastic and magical adventure on his quest to beat the evil Zoltar and restore harmony and peace in Ethernia. Where Andy faces mythical creatures, solves tricky riddles, and has his first romantic experience. See once again the triumph of good over evil and how mighty the power of love could be.

Synopsis,
The book opens on that tragic 22nd November 1963; when the body of President Kennedy arrived at Andrew’s Air Force from Dallas. The events surrounding his assassination are described by a young agent named Joe Randolph, leaving a profound mark on him for the rest of his life. Then the story goes more than fifty years into the future, to Thursday, November 21, 2016, when the President of the United States is about to travel to Dallas, Texas, to preside over a ceremony to rename Daily Plaza. The man in charge of the president’s Secret Service detail is advance agent Jack Randolph. A twenty-year veteran and second-generation Secret Service agent; his father Joe was part of Kennedy’s detail on that tragic day in Dallas. Jack grew up, listening to his father saying, how they failed to protect Kennedy and how different life could be if he didn’t die on that day.
That Thursday after midnight, Jack leaves home for the White House, to finalize preparations for the next day’s trip, but a heavy storm is pounding the DC area, and on his way to the capital city; he is forced to change his normal route, due to an accident in the expressway. This leaves him no choice, but to take the Arlington Memorial Bridge. As he was driving in the middle of the bridge, lightning struck right in front of his car, causing an amazing phenomenon. A time portal opened in front of him, transporting Randolph back to the year 1963.
Utterly bewildered, it takes some time for Randolph to finally realize and accept the fact that he has traveled in time to 1963, but as a man who believes in destiny, he is convinced that he is in that particular moment in time for a reason and what better reason than try to amend what his father couldn’t do, which is to save President Kennedy and change history. He is convinced that the only person who can ultimately do something to alter the outcome of this tragic event, is the president himself, so to accomplish this seemly impossible task, he has to somehow get to the president and warn him of the imminent threat on his life, but how?
Then, he decided to look for his father and uncle, who were members of Kennedy’s Secret Service detail and also roommates, living in the Georgetown area. They are the only ones he trusts can help him, but it would be a monumental challenge to convince them of who he is and what was about to happen to President Kennedy.
Follow Jack Randolph in this amazing adventure and discover if he would accomplish what many people have only dreamed of doing, “Change the course of history, saving President Kennedy”.
In a distant land, the kingdoms of Concordia, Argonia, and Sarmalia thrived in peace, united by the marriage of King Phillip and Princess Ileana. But this harmony was shattered when the sinister Princess Vania of Sarmalia unleashed dragons on the night of their daughter Lila’s second birthday, killing the king and queen and plunging the realm into chaos. Unbeknownst to the new rulers, the blind Princess Lila survived, hidden away by a mysterious gypsy nanny who raised her as “Viola,” unaware of her royal heritage. As the evil rulers tighten their grip, whispers of a lost heir spread, and Viola’s fate becomes entwined with a perilous quest. She must uncover her past, find her true love, and confront the darkness to reclaim her throne and restore peace—if she can survive long enough to do so.
