The Toast of the Twenties

The jazz was loud. The gin was cold. The tragedy was already written. Sent back to 1921 San Francisco, modern time-traveler Maggie is swept up in the glamorous, chaotic world of Hollywood's elite. But when she tries to save rising starlet Virginia Rappe from a looming, hidden medical crisis, she learns the cruelest rule of the timeline: some history cannot be undone. The Toast of the Twenties is a haunting, atmospheric time-travel novelette that explores the boundaries of friendship, the weight of guilt, and the stubborn finality of the past.
