She felt closer to something each time she went to look out over the ocean. One evening, she had an argument with her mother and ran off to her favorite place for an escape from her pain. Later that same evening, she discovered ancient relics where she sat. She decidedly went to get the help of her friend Matteo. Jessica returned to the Majestic with her friend Matteo to retrieve the objects she discovered. Upon her return home, she discovered her mother pacing in the kitchen and police cars around her home. Nervous, she asked her friend to stay out of sight so she could convince her mother to ask the police to leave. The next day, Jessica and Matteo took the items to their science teacher, Mrs. Panthera, who told stories of peculiar expeditions she took many years earlier. The teacher seemed unusually interested in the items brought to her. Soon, the reason for the unusual interest was revealed. Jessica encountered Soneya, who was a member of an ancient science-based civilization located below the floor of the Atlantic basin. Jessica was mesmerized by her abilities and knowledge. She introduced Soneya to both her mother and teacher. The true adventure began when she learned of her teacher’s mysterious past. The journey started when the group ventured to an island that had never been found on a map. A vortex formed in the central portion of the island, and the group was transported below the ocean floor, where Jessica meets an unusually familiar man. Many revelations were learned by Jessica, which included the fact that the mysterious man was her lost father and an ancient scientist. Jessica and her companions returned home and discovered Jessica’s mother was kidnapped. Mrs. Panthera had knowledge of her location and decidedly led the group to a military base. The realization of the kidnapping as a ploy to bring Soneya to the base for capture becomes evident as the soldiers encroach upon Jessica and Soneya’s location. A confrontation between the soldiers and leaders of the base with Soneya brings out Jessica’s true inner power and the discovery of her true self.

Book excerpt: Chris Landrum is about to have it all-an extended vacation, a second home at the beach, and early retirement in his fifties. There's only one glitch: murder is part of the package on the small South Carolina barrier island of Folly Beach, where eccentric residents live bohemian lifestyles in the shadow of historic Charleston. Soon after settling in Folly Beach, Chris is befriended by an unlikely cadre of quirky locals: a real estate agent who looks like an out-of-season Santa with an attitude; a waitress who shares rumors and effuses charm; a professor; a lovely, intelligent, and unattached reporter; and a president-quoting, tag-along companion. He is fascinated by the company of his newfound friends, the novelty of the strange island that they call home, and the contrast of it all with stately Charleston. But when Chris finds the body of a prominent developer and lands in the middle of the Folly Beach spotlight, he immediately becomes a threat to the killer-and his vacation paradise might be the scene of his own untimely death. Vacations aren't nearly as much fun when one of your new acquaintances is trying to kill you, and catching a murderer is not the normal way to spend an extended holiday. But on Folly Beach, what's normal?
