About Rosalind Tate
Rosalind Tate is the author of the bestselling Shorten Chronicles, the romantic time travel/sci-fi series.
Sophie Arundel, her dog Charlotte, and Sophie's soulmates, Hugo and Freddy, travel through a mysterious portal to different parallel universes. If they can't work out the portal's most terrifying secret, they'll never escape its power, and never return home.
The idea for the first book in the series, Stranded, came to Rosalind a few years ago while she was watching the TV show, Downton, and the time-travel series grew from there!
Stranded is set in an alternate 1925 England, in a grand country house. It sold 11,000 copies within a year, was a Page Turner Awards Finalist, and won the a Readers' Favorite Silver Medal (Time Travel). For a few days, Stranded outranked Outlander and Harry Potter on Amazon.
Book 2, Escape, was published to rave reviews.
In Book 3, Exile, the four friends are trapped in a lawless, medieval realm.
In Book 3.5, Intermezzo, a novella exclusive to this website, Sophie’s in modern London. She gets married and has a baby, taking a break between time travelling…
In Book 4, Defiance, the gang find themselves in an alternate 1927 and a full-blown civil war.
In Book 5, Hunted, Sophie’s in ancient Rome hunting for the artefact that can kill a god and save her daughter.
In Book 6, Endgame, Sophie’s in London in 1889. This is the last chance to end Janus and reach her daughter.
