With the birth of the internet, pop culture has become inundated with urban legends and conspiracy theories. Some of the claims that people make are outrageous, others seem disturbingly possible. Shadow governments, evil reptilian shape shifters, ancient astronauts and the Illuminati are just a few of the incredible hypotheses that are being presented to us on YouTube. What does it all mean?

I thought it would be fun to weave all these myths into an exciting mystery adventure novel, and that’s where I got the idea for The Compostela Cube. I took every conspiracy theory I could find, and combined them with new age spirituality and cutting edge technology to create a world that oddly reflects the one that we live in.

The story revolves around an ancient artifact that is recovered by a relic hunter named Dr. Gabriel Parker, and an alluring artifact historian named Dr. Natasha Rossi. Together they begin to piece together a dark mystery that they seem to be directly connected to; a mystery that if solved in time could reveal a secret knowledge capable of saving the world from certain destruction.

Gabriel and Natasha are assisted by a loyal collection of unforgettable characters, while being pursued by a tormented villain who has just inherited control of a powerful organization poised to draw the world into a fascist, New World Order. His name is Christian Antov, and he struggles desperately to destroy Gabriel and Natasha, and the one artifact that stands in his way: The Compostela Cube.

Synopsis:

When they come into possession of a mysterious prehistoric cube, relic hunter Gabriel Parker, and the alluring artifact historian Natasha Rossi, find themselves inexplicably bound to a dark mythology dating back to the roots of civilization. The 2012 doomsday prophecies have come and gone, but now, without warning, the feared revelations are coming true. Under the apocalyptic shadow of global war and rampant natural disasters, Gabriel and Natasha race to prevent an unspeakable horror from being unleashed onto the planet. With nothing but a tattered journal to guide them, they travel from Italy to North Africa, and then set course for the mountains of Spain, where they must locate a lost labyrinth spoken of by the ancients. Within is said to reside the answer to the mystery of mysteries:The Meaning Of Life. Hunting them is Christian Antov, heir to a secret organization poised to draw the world into a global fascist regime. He will stop at nothing to destroy Gabriel and Natasha, and the one artifact that stands in his way: The Compostela Cube.

ABOUT CAN'T STOP LOVING YOU

Brick and Helen Sullivan had been a team, onstage and off. When she walked out of their marriage without an explanation, he swore he’d never play another role with her, in the bedroom or otherwise. But Fate brings them together to reprise their roles in The Taming of the Shrew, and the sparks begin to fly. Laugh – and cry – as the famous and lively lovers try to untangle a web of misunderstanding and find their way back to the place where they belong. (Forever Friends, Book 1).

ABOUT ONLY HIS TOUCH

Kathleen Shaw has lost everything – the only man she’ll ever love, the husband who had rescued and adored her, her career, and now her eyesight and hearing. She has even lost the Forever Friends because she’s too proud to call for their help. That she survived the boat explosion is a miracle. When Hunter La Farge returns to Jefferson Parish searching for her, is it too much to ask for another miracle? (Forever Friends, Book 2.)

ABOUT BRINGING UP BAXTER

Attorney B. J. Corban’s fiancée is on their honeymoon – with another woman! When her zany sister packs her off to the mountains to get over being jilted at the altar, B. J. takes enough camping equipment to fight off mosquitoes, bears and famine. But she hadn’t counted on a heart-stealer on a Harley, appropriately called Crash. Nor had she counted on a little stray dog she calls Baxter. Crash lays claim to the dog – and her heart. She fights to keep both, but can Crash teach B. J. that to lose her heart is also to keep it?

ABOUT ANGELS ON ZEBRAS

When her sister B.J. asks Maxie to be godmother to her son, the zany interior designer is happy to comply – until she learns she will be sharing god-parenthood with Mr. Perfect. Lawyer Joseph Beuregard is successful, drop-dead handsome and lethally sexy. There are only two problems: he’s the cause of Maxie’s Most Embarassing Moment and he’s B.J.’s brother-in-law. Maxie ruins every man she touches. She’s not about to follow her heart and in the process destroy her sister’s family. Besides, she and Joe can’t even see eye to eye on the christening party. How could they ever have a relationship? But Joe has other ideas. Can two people so totally opposite give their godson the best party in the world and find true love?
