Publisher Description

My name is Bailey Duane, and I have the best—and strangest—job ever.

I am a professional gofer, which means if you need someone to release chickens in an airport terminal to stop your beloved from getting on a plane, I'm your girl.

Fetching drycleaning? Check. Game night buddy? Check. Giving everyone ridiculous nicknames? Double check.

Only, when I get hired by a guy I call Fred and his stick-in-the-mud colleague Gawain to retrieve a document that seems to have gotten lost in the mud of history, things definitely do not go as planned.

For one, I'm stuck with a minder from the FBI to make sure I don't break any laws while travelling around the world.

Also, no one seems to be giving me accurate information about this document or the other people after it.

And finally? I'm being pulled through time itself on my search for this missing manuscript.

Now, with a Knight of the Round Table lookalike at my side, competing with the FBI agent for Annoying Travel Companion of the Year, I've got to jump around time trying to find this book, before the competition finds me.

Just this once, I might be in over my head.

My characters tend to not fit the standard protagonist mould; they're not the strongest, the most powerful, the loudest. They have their own problems to deal with and end up in the middle of things because they want to help people, or by mere accident.
