“Sydney & Sakura: Inferno Rift,” a new book by H.R. Chambers of Mesa, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co. Inc.

“Sixteen-year-old Sydney is a relatively behaved teen. She keeps to herself, takes ballet classes and excels in school. Life is busy, but it’s good. It’s just her and her mom against the world, with everything as it should be. Until one fateful afternoon…,” according to a release.

“In the blink of an eye, Sydney is plunged into an inter-dimensional conflict and discovers a long-kept secret of her heritage. She endures harsh training and must defeat her own inner struggles in order to save the world she’s grown up in and the world her parents once called home,” the release states.

Chambers grew up in California where she loved reading books by Judy Blume and writing short stories. She graduated from college with a degree in child development in 2005 and worked for almost 20 years in the field, including owning and operating a day care for nine years.

She is in the process of making writing her full-time career. When not writing, Chambers enjoys reading, playing “Animal Crossings: New Horizons” and celebrating Halloween all year long.
