Description edit see section history

Imogen Stromholdt lives a very uninteresting and sluggish life; her days are about as fast as a snail riding a turnip. She so longs to have fun adventures of her own filled with daring plots and danger, but those dreams are as far away as a dream could be.

But her life quickly becomes... read more

The Pocket Watch begins with a dream of a young boy who dies alone in the cold. Imogen doesn't know who he is, but she knows his name; Aiden. There is grave news of a body washing up on the beach shore, but Imogen doesn't feel that it applies to her, so she doesn't read much into it. Imogen's father tells her that a young boy named Necklan will be staying with them for a few weeks, so be on her best behavior, which she promises with a crossed heart, and crossed fingers. The very next day, she meets a boy named Lucius Knight. Things get stranger when she discovers that Necklan is a fire-wielding warlock, and Lucius is far from human. Imogen receives a golden pocket watch that belonged to her deceased mother. Many great witches and warlocks have owned this very watch for centuries. The only problem is she's human, and humans have never been a watch master in the last four hundred years. In order to learn the mystery behind her mother's hidden past, Imogen must help the House of Bekker, an organization of beings called Wraiths, discover the identity of the wicked and powerful man who calls himself Ignius. But as an average human girl facing off against terrifying obstacles including a dragon made of pure hellfire, her bravery wavers but her will is stronger. Anyone who cannot identify with the majority of young adult heroes and heroines, because your average teenager doesn't miraculously sprout 'super powers', will find that connection with Imogen because she is not a witch, or vampire, or the daughter of a Greek god with great magic. Her greatest tool is her freedom of choice in this charming and darkly romantic tale of magic, murder, and destiny.
