'A crime story rich in wartime intrigue. A compelling read.' Barry Lees, author of The Last Known Sighting
October 1942.
Deadly espionage attacks are escalating across US Army Air Force bases stationed around London, threatening to derail the upcoming goodwill visit of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.
Brigadier General Maximilian Landry, commander of the base in Heathbridge, is on his way to attend the birthday party of his mentor, General Bedford ‘Ford’ Masterson, when his car misses hazardous boulders strewn in his path - one in a series of sabotage incidents.
A female OSS agent, Corporal Anne Beasley, is sent to investigate the disruption. She soon finds herself embroiled in a labyrinth of deceit, where nothing is as it seems. While Anne serves as Landry’s temporary adjutant during a severe staffing shortage, Max grows suspicious of her and asks Major Brett Calloway, who he has served with for over ten years, to spy on her.
As the attacks increase, suspicions mount surrounding who could be responsible as confidential information is leaked. With no one to turn to and no one who will believe her, the agent fights desperately to defend herself and uncover the culprit.
A conspiracy unfolds, which could not only endanger the life of the First Lady but threaten the success of the war effort itself.
Alison Chambers lives Greendale, Wisconsin. The Magician’s Daughter is her seventh novel and is the first in a series of World War II historical fiction adventures.
The Magician’s Daughter is a story about treacherous Nazi spies, high-level fascist conspiracies, and escalating sabotage, all taking place at the time Eleanor Roosevelt is set to tour US Army Air Force Bases in England in 1942.

Hunky Trey Zacco, gritty survivalist and host of the Miami-based Holiday Channel’s hit "Wildman" series and glitz and glamour girl, Erica Kingsley, host of the channel’s "Lap of Luxury" show, are thrown together in the steamy jungles of Belize as a publicity stunt. Erica’s father, Arthur Kingsley, the owner of the Holiday Channel, has proposed the angle, not only to boost ratings, but also as a way to toughen up his spoiled daughter. And Kingsley wants them to search for Montezuma’s lost gold.
FIVE STARS AND A TOP PICK FROM NIGHT OWL REVIEWS--"I loved the characters and the perfect blend of romance and suspense. Ms Chambers takes us on a wild journey...the background story is wonderful...This is easily a book I would enjoy sitting down and reading again. I for one hope that Ms. Chambers decides to make a series from this tale. The Secret Sentinel is a wonderful read and I highly recommend it. Look out Nora Roberts...there's a new author on the horizon."
