By Travis Heermann and T. James Logan

The birthday party will be RUINED!

Chloe had no idea she might have to put her new black belt in taekwondo to use at her friend's thirteenth birthday party...

But somebody — or something — is a low-down, dirty, thieving cake-stealer!

Can Chloe and her friends brave a winter storm and dark, scary woods to collar the culprit before the cake disappears forever?

Travis Heermann

Travis Heermann grew up in the countryside of Nebraska and graduated from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln with a BS in electrical engineering. In 2003, he shifted careers and moved to Fukuoka, Japan, to teach English to young students in public schools. Amazon.com called his first novel, The Ivory Star, “a must have for every sci-fi reader.” Soon afterward, Heermann immersed himself in Japanese culture and history and combined his passion for folklore and fantasy literature. The result is Heart of the Ronin, a tale of a teenage warrior in thirteenth-century Japan, and the first volume in the Ronin Trilogy. On Ronin Writer (travisheermann.com/blog), Heermann’s blog about the writing life, he posts an ongoing series of in-depth interviews with authors in a variety of genres.
