Hidden Truths (#1) Divergent times. Distant lands. Different missions. One gambit.
In Austro-Hungary, 1898: a sickly girl discovers a bundle of instructions addressed to her by a legendary nobleman, who lived centuries ago. He entrusts her with a powerful ring and mission to protect the world from the ambitions of both factions of a mystical power struggle. It will require her to embark on a quest that will cause her own culture to reject her; the girl knows she has to accept. Now an outcast, she must outwit the Society’s and the Urumi’s evil designs as she attempts to alter a series of magical devices that can give anyone the power to control the world.
In Thailand, 2004: Mei Hua and Mark, two unvalued interns, are swept out to sea by a giant wall of water. They are rescued by a space-folding sailing ship, crewed by a gang of pirates. To survive, Mark and Mei are required to join forces with the mercenaries and fight to retrieve another powerful object that — known only to the ship’s enigmatic captain — can make the world descend into chaos. Trapped on the strange ship, Mei and Mark must find it within themselves to keep this artifact from falling into the wrong hands – assuming they can determine whose hands those are.
In Russia, 1889: Natalia, the untested heir of her gypsy camp, finds herself in charge when her grandmother is abducted by an enemy her troop is not prepared to fight. The situation seems hopeless; from a secret buried deep in her past, Natalia knows it is her fault. Then a mysterious note from a sender she does not know offers an impossible way out – one that will doom her troop to slavery, or worse, if it fails. Natalia must find her inner courage and overcome the demons of her past if she is to lead her troop to salvation.
These are the Voyagers. Each believes they are working for their own ends. They are dead wrong. They have unknowingly become pawns in a centuries-spanning gambit to control time and the world itself. Their paths are about to cross.
All that remains to be seen is: who is really about to take over?
Promises Betrayed (#2) Three eras. Two Orders. One gambit. Zero margin for error.
In California, 1921: Stranded more than thirty years into his future, time traveler Henry has joined forces with adventuress Alma Karlin. They must make their way to another continent if Henry is to return to his own era, as Alma continues her quest to keep the world safe from the Urumi, and the Society’s plans to control time itself. Then, a message from Henry’s long-dead parents reveals his true identity and urges him to pursue a different, more dangerous mission. He will have to start working against Alma if he is to accomplish the true ends of the Order of the Dragon. The only trouble is: can he hide his betrayal in plain sight?
In Russia, 1889: Her grandmother kidnapped and her gypsy camp under siege by its worst enemy, Natalia has resolved to reach a mystic object that could save her people. Facing starvation and defeat, her troop loses faith in Natalia’s untested leadership. Then a shocking development puts Henry at fault for their dire circumstances. Can she find the inner strength to save her embattled camp from extermination?
In the Indian Ocean, 2005: Castaways Mark and Mei Hua question their place in the world after the actions they were forced to take during the deadly raid in Somalia. The situation on board the pirate vessel appears calm, yet the entire crew is in more danger than they realize. The Urumi’s demon Order has set out to destroy them, but the biggest threat may come from the vessel’s violent and secretive captain, who is willing to sacrifice the rest of the crew to achieve her dark, secret purpose.
Trapped in foreign lands and in a gambit larger than they can imagine, the only way forward is to trust the one mysterious voice that binds their paths together – even when that voice commands them to betray those they hold most dear.
Sometimes, the only way out is to make promises that are made to be broken….
