The Towpath:
When The Redeemer learns about an ancient medallion that will allow her to go back in time to prevent her teenage daughter’s suicide, she and her band of seventeenth-century Iroquois warriors embark on a mission to recover it. The only problem, however, is Aaron Porter, a shy fourteen-year-old with a garbage-picking hobby, who has discovered the medallion first. And he has his own plans for it.
Now, hot on the trail of Aaron and his friends, The Redeemer won’t hesitate to recover what’s rightfully hers.
How far would you go to prevent the death of someone you love, and when? The Redeemer knows, and that’s why she’ll travel across centuries, removing anyone who stands in her way.

BOOK REVIEWS Of THE TOWPATH
Now, hear me now and hear me well, for if you are ever looking for an imaginative time travel novel that grips you from the very start, pulls you in from the very first page, and never lets you go, well look no further than author Jonathan Walter’s brand new book, The Towpath: A Time Travel Suspense Thriller.
In what is a dutifully, profoundly created, and imaginative world, one where the lengths and breadths of how a soul can travel to find, save and be with a loved one, is showcased to the most effectively beautiful, this time traveling historical adventure is for people of all ages.
Inclusive of thought-provoking scenarios, that will most definitely even have the reader second-guessing what they themselves would do given the suspenseful, and at times nerve-wracking scene-setting prose that is lovingly on display here, the book is one that after it has been read, you will pick up again in a few months to re-read, of that you have my word, for it is just that intriguingly good.
