Time
Tsunami
By: Danele Rotharmel
Before I dive into this, a word from me. It's not often I binge read. But these were... incredible. I was hooked from page one. I got the third as part of a subscription from the publishers, and immediately got books one and two so the third made sense.
I read far later into the night than I ought. I woke wondering if such and such were okay, should i text them to check... then realised they were characters in a book. Eagerly waiting for book 4, because I need to know what happens next. No make that I NEED to know what happens next.
Time Tsunami–The Time Counselor
Chronicles #1
To stop a cruel serial killer, she must travel
twenty-four years into the past…
Gil Montgomery, a cadet in the Temporal
Counseling Program, can’t wait to pass her field exam and become a professional
time surfer. The TEMCO program targets death-row offenders for time-based
counseling while they’re children. For her exam, Gil will travel
twenty-four years into the past to counsel ten-year-old Danny Winston before he
murders his abusive babysitter, Rick Olsen. Preventing the stabbing
should stop the chain of events leading to Danny’s eventual execution.
Gil’s assignment seems simple until her
adviser, Dr. William Ableman, learns that Rick is a serial killer targeting
Danny’s mother. If Gil stays and protects the Winstons, she might not
survive. William wants the woman he loves to be pulled from the field,
but if Gil fails to complete her assignment, it will unleash a Time Tsunami and
destroy the timeline.
As TEMCO undergoes an emergency lockdown, and
Gil’s fellow cadets try to figure out what’s happening, Gil and William learn
the importance of faith and the price of true love. Everyone’s fate is resting
in Gil’s hands, but does she have the strength she needs to defeat a ruthless
serial killer intent on annihilating everyone in his path?
Excerpt:
Gil sprinted
into the hall. The broken rubbish on the floor crackled beneath her feet,
making her easy to find. Grabbing at her, Rick tossed her into the kitchen. She
fell against the sink and reached for the window. She tugged on it until she
realized it had been nailed shut. Shrinking back against the counter, she knew
with sudden clarity that Rick had made the kitchen a trap with only one exit—an
exit he was blocking. Standing absolutely still, she forced herself to calm her
rapid breathing. She had to be quiet, very quiet. Sooner or later, Rick would
leave the kitchen doorway, and when he did, she would sneak past him.
“All ye, all ye,
outs in free,” Rick sang in an eerie voice that sent chills racing down her
spine. “Come out, come out, wherever you may be.”
Gil shivered and
choked down a whimper. She saw Rick’s eyes flicker. Peering from side-to-side,
he whispered, “Why don’t you come out and play?”
With bated
breath, she watched as he slowly advanced. She knew he was trying to draw her
out. If she moved prematurely, she’d give away her location. Her muscles tensed
and a mist of perspiration beaded her brow. As he made his way deeper into the
kitchen, she made a sudden lunge for the doorway.

Bio:
Danele
Rotharmel grew up with a love of the literary word, and by age five, she knew
she wanted to be a writer. However, her life took an unexpected turn when a
mysterious illness brought her close to death. Eventually, she learned that a
low-level carbon monoxide leak from a faulty furnace in her home was slowly
poisoning her. This poisoning triggered severe Multiple Chemical Sensitivity
and partial amnesia.
During
this time, the hardest thing she faced was a crisis of faith. She had to quit
her job and stop going to church. She couldn’t write, couldn’t drive, and could
barely remember who she was. To say she was upset with the Lord was an
understatement. She began reexamining her faith in light of her illness, and
eventually, she came to the firm conclusion that God is real, God is good, God
is interested and involved, and God is trustworthy regardless of tragedy.
When
her illness became even more severe, she was put into quarantine and could only
talk to friends and extended family through the glass of a window. This
quarantine lasted for seven years. During this time, she wrote the first six
books in The Time Counselor Chronicles.
Danele
currently lives in Colorado where she continues to write. Although her journey
back to health was long and difficult, it provided her with the opportunity to grow
closer to God and to write her books. For that, she is forever thankful.
