About this listen

From the author of the critically acclaimed Northwest Passage, American Journey, and Carson Chronicles series comes the first book in the Time Box saga.

Virginia physicist Mark Lane has a problem. Weeks after privately creating two time machines, he learns his corporate partner wants to use the portable devices for nefarious purposes. Rather than give him the chance to do so, Mark takes the time boxes and escapes to the relative safety of 1865.

For Mark, wife Mary, and their children, the adventure is a chance to grow. Mary runs a business. Jeremy, 19, and Ashley, 12, befriend escaped slaves. Laura, 22, finds her place as a nurse. Jordan, 25, falls for a beautiful widow. All hope to find peace in the past.

Billionaire Robert Devereaux has other ideas. Shortly after Mark's betrayal, he sends an assassin to 1865 to retrieve his property and set matters straight.

Filled with romance, suspense, and history, The Lane Betrayal follows a modern American family as it tries to find security and contentment in the final weeks of the Civil War.

Historical Fiction with a little twist

I loved how the beginning of The Lane Betrayal was captivating & pulled me in quickly. The storyline was easy to follow, and it was overall a great listen. Looking forward to listening to the next book in the series.

The Lane Betrayal has come to life!

In The Lane Betrayal, the listener is introduced to the world that is John Heldt's mind, and of course, the Lane Family. I have read a lot of work by the author before, and I think this is one of my favorites. Heldt is known for his time travelling stories, and I like each one I read or listen to. I haven't listened to anything from this author before, and I really enjoyed it. I did read the print version of the story, and enjoyed it, but I also really enjoyed this audiobook. This narration really brought this story to life. The antagonist was a character that I felt was both devious and yet, in a way, enjoyable to read about. The story brings in the believable, even if almost impossible. This book deserves a second listen! (and maybe more). It is always a joy to read this author's stories, and now he has put his Time Box series on audio. This author is not just a writer but a great storyteller. The author's technique of intense characters and great plotlines is a gift. It's a great story to follow and try to figure out what will happen next. The Lane family is one of greatness and one that has a great loyalty to one another, really, how many families would be willing to go back to 1865? This story is well done! It had been a while since I read the story, and now listening to it brings it all back. Magnificent story, kept this reader turning the hanging on every word of the story. The Lane Betrayal on audiobook is a definite listening recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I look forward to listening to many more titles by this author. Amy's Bookshelf Reviews recommends that anyone who listens to this book, to also write a review.
