The Arkana Series

College freshman Cassie Forsythe wakes from a disturbing nightmare after seeing her sister being murdered by a man in a cowboy hat who demands something called "the key". Her dream morphs into frightening reality when her sister is found dead, exactly as her vision foretold. 

Cassie's life takes an even more bizarre turn once she learns that her dead sister, an antique dealer, has discovered the location of a cache of priceless Minoan artifacts. A secret society called the Arkana and a fanatical religious cult known as the Blessed Nephilim are each determined to claim the prize. 

Caught squarely between these rival factions is Cassie herself, after she stumbles across the only known map to the treasure. The girl allies herself with the Arkana, in hopes of staying alive. With Nephilim assassins on her trail, that's easier said than done.

Secrets of the Serpent's Heart

In Secrets of the Serpent's Heart, two Arkana agents search the length and breadth of China for an obscure relic that will name the hiding place of their most sought-after prize. At the same time, a third agent tackles the dangerous mission of discovering the Nephilim's end game.

In the remote reaches of Yunnan province, the agents encounter an enigmatic stranger who holds the power to stop their quest dead in its tracks. Meanwhile, unthinkable catastrophes befall the Arkana's leadership, leaving the secret society one step away from collapse.

The serpent's heart hides more than a clue to a lost artifact. It offers the only means to save the Arkana from total destruction.
