A Time to Seek
The Time Travel Journals of Sahara Aldridge #1
By Tracy Higley
Sahara Aldridge is working to make a name for herself in Egyptology. A field, that in 1922, is dominated by men. Her love began as a young girl as she traveled with her parents as they made their own inroads into this field. But when she was 15 years old she lost them. Fortunately, the family that took her in allowed her to continue her studies of Egypt and archeology.
Sahara has one last chance to secure her place in Egyptology before the funds that have supported the digs she has participated in are gone. But this year she has two goals while in Egypt - help make the find of a lifetime and determine the truth behind her parents' deaths.
When her dear friend Evelyn finds something that casts doubt on all she knew about her parents, Sahara begins to question events from her own past. Could she and her parents have been more than she always knew? With a journal entry as her only clue, Sahara is about to dig into not only Egypt's past but her own as well. Her future may depend on what she discovers.
And then there is Jack Moretti, an American photographic journalist who may have ties to the answers she's seeking. Is Jack a friend or a foe? Sahara has secrets to guard both as an Egyptologist on a dig and as a person who may have a gift of time travel and Jack may be a threat to everything.
A Time to Seek takes the reader on a journey through time not by revealing discoveries of ancient cities and sites of importance but by seeing it through the eyes of a young woman who is about to discover just who she truly is. Sahara has the ability to slip into the past. But entering a world, a place, a time without the proper knowledge could be the death of her.
A Time to Seek is the first book in The Time Travel Journals of Sahara Aldridge and it is an excellent read. I don't want to reveal too much and spoil it for any reader but really this is a not-to-be-missed book. And it will leave you in anticipation of book 2. I highly recommend this book if you have a love of the unexpected, time travel, mysteries, and speculative fiction. Or if you just love a well-written book you can't go wrong with this offering from Tracy Higley.
I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion all thoughts expressed are my own.

An exceptionally well written time travel book!
I’m a huge fan of Tracy Higley, having read all of her books in the 7 Wonders of the World series. When I found out that her new series was about time travel, my curiosity piqued as I’m a fan of time travel movies and TV shows.Within the first few pages of A Time to Seek, I was hooked. The protagonist, Sahara Aldridge, is an English woman around the age of 30 who is an Egyptologist. Her passion for digging into the sands of time in Egypt in the early 1920s was left to her from her deceased parents, also Egyptologists. Clues begin surfacing from Eve, a long-time friend, that cause Sahara to wonder about her parents (who never returned home after a trip to Italy 15 years earlier). What really happened to them? At the same time an American reporter, Jack Moretti, enters into her life asking to do a piece on her, take photos of the dig, etc. But Sarah feels there is more to his request. Can she trust him? What are his motives?With this backdrop, Tracy entwines the reader’s mind with twists and turns as you read about Sahara’s quest to find out the truth about her parents and Jack. Of course, since the book is about time traveling, the reader is zapped back in history to meet interesting heads of state in Ancient Egypt, all the while Sahara is doing her best to gather information, survive and return to her modern day. Since this is book 1 of 3, I was left with no answers to the big questions and pining for more of the story.A Time To Seek made me feel I was in Egypt. Tracy captures the sights, sounds and smells of Egypt of the 1920s and ancient past. Oh, to be a fly on the wall and time travel back to see the Pharoahs of old (and hope to not be swatted before returning to modern day).I struggled to put the book down at night so I could get enough sleep for the next day. It’s just THAT good! I highly recommend this book. I am very anxious for the next book in this series .
