Synopsis: Kate Heartfield's Alice Payne Arrives is the story of a time traveling thief turned reluctant hero in this science fiction adventure. A disillusioned major, a highwaywoman, and a war raging across time. It&’s 1788 and Alice Payne is the notorious highway robber, the Holy Ghost. Aided by her trusty automaton, Laverna, the Holy Ghost is feared by all who own a heavy purse. It&’s 1889 and Major Prudence Zuniga is once again attempting to change history—to save history—but seventy attempts later she&’s still no closer to her goal. It&’s 2016 and . . . well, the less said about 2016 the better! But in 2020 the Farmers and the Guides are locked in battle; time is their battleground, and the world is their prize. Only something new can change the course of the war. Or someone new. Little did they know, but they&’ve all been waiting until Alice Payne arrives.
