A young girl disappears.

Can secrets inside a three centuries-old journal save her life in time?

Generations of first daughters each wrote one entry, sharing family secrets, chronicling courageous acts, the freeing power of forgiveness and more.

A modern-day suspenseful tale with elements of historical fiction, As Time Unfolds, will captivate you from the start and keep you guessing until The Timekeeper chimes twelve.

Editorial Reviews

"As Time Unfolds has a dual storyline. Readers expecting the usual romantic words on paper will be pleasantly surprised to find some suspense conveniently nestled in the book. The primary character finds herself embarking on a journey of self-discovery... The extent of information and effort put into the historical aspects of the book are also another pleasant factor...

Lovers of the romance genre will be quickly drawn to this novel. It's not your classic boy-meets-girl tale. However, the author's unique style of interplaying between all the parties involved is quite fetching. There's just enough suspense in this novel to attract the average crime and mystery novel follower.

Barbara Zerfoss tells an exciting story that only a few of her contemporaries can replicate. Her work is error-free, and the linguistic style is appealing...4 out of 4 stars." - Sam Ibeh, Online Book Club

"A deftly crafted combination of Christian Mystery & Suspense Romance, "As Time Unfolds" by novelist Barbara Zerfoss is a special kind of family saga style historical fiction — and one that is as inherently fascinating as it is enduringly entertaining from cover to cover. While very highly recommended, especially for community library collections, it should be noted for personal reading lists that "As Time Unfolds" is also readily available in a digital book format." - Midwest Book Review
