What do you think about book clubs? In this post, I will share the best books in my book club from the 14 books we've read over the years. There are 7 of us in the club, and we are as diverse as it gets. We are accountants, a Ph.D. scientist, lawyers, a social worker, a salesperson and a marketing and advertising rep! Some of us are loud, some quiet. Some are serious, some lighthearted. We have both introverts and extroverts. Though we are all different, here are a few things we have in common: we are all women, live in the

Out of Time: The Dream Traveler Book 1 is a police procedural novel written by Ernesto H. Lee. Detective Constable Sean McMillan takes his work home with him -- quite literally. He has honed his lucid dreaming skills to the point where he can travel back in time and even pinpoint where in the past he will end up. His assignment to the Cold Case Squad is a perfect fit for a detective with his skills, and his current focus, on a psychopathic killer and heavy named Paul Donovan, has had him spending his nights back in 1994 at the King George, the pub where Sean suspects Donovan killed one of his opponents during a Pub League Pool Tournament. The files show this as an unsolved crime. Any witnesses stated that a large black man had killed Anthony Glennister during a fight. Throughout the years they’ve held firm to that story, but Sean is determined to get to the truth. Ernesto H Lee’s police procedural novel, Out of Time: The Dream Traveler Book 1, is an intriguing and well-written story that features a time-traveling detective. DC McMillan is a marvelous main character whose nightly travels seem to keep him slightly out of the modern loop most people find themselves in. Add to that the film noir quality of those dream sequences, and you have a marvelous start to a police series that’s decidedly different and well worth following. Lee’s plot is a solid one, and the armchair sleuth will have a challenging time figuring out what McMillan’s next move will be. I’m looking forward to future investigations featuring the Cold Case Squad and DC Sean McMillan. Out of Time: The Dream Traveler Book 1 is most highly recommended.
