Iris Jacobs wants to be taken seriously. She’s a newly minted college grad, ready to take on the world of historical research. What she finds instead is high rent and a job posting on a tacky flyer. Soon, she’s blowing bubbles while leading songs she doesn’t know, and calling BINGO games while breaking up fights between elderly dementia patients in a nursing home. She’s immersed in a world where you can’t believe a word anyone says.Except one man. There’s something different about him. Psychiatrists have declared him incompetent because, although he appears to be in his eighties, he claims to be a twenty-four year old master craftsman from Scotland. Strangest of all, his story checks out… about a hundred years too early. If Iris chooses to believe him, their unlikely alliance will test everything she believes about faith, love, friendship, and most of all, herself. Her quest to bring about his freedom will shake the very foundations of Time itself… and could cost her everything. "Time Tree: The Emergence is a fun adventure from which young adult and older readers will likely get a great amount of enjoyment. The plot offers a fresh and unique spin on a popular genre and both Iris and Angus are characters that I found myself quickly endeared to. The story has its fair share of plot twists and despite feeling like you might know what's coming next, Lisa Rae Morris does a wonderful job of throwing in spanners that delight as they spur the pair forward (or is it back? You'll have to wait and see...). As this is a Christian series there are certain elements that tie into the faith, but they are slight and temporal enough that readers of all backgrounds and beliefs will be able to read and enjoy the book just as they might any other." --Readers' Favorite "Been in and out of time all day... finished this WONDER in two days. It was compelling. So much to savor, so deep, so wide. Never had a clue where it was going next, but the ending was very satisfying... okay, I cried. Loved it!" --Valerie K. "I've been an avid reader of fiction for 61 years, and this book is in my top five. I never saw what was coming next." --J. Armstrong Lisa Rae Morris writes both fiction and nonfiction.
