Mystery/adventure series Seeds Of Civilization: A twist of fate changes everything for widower Frank Morton, a Seattle aerospace engineer. An unexpected windfall lifts him from the depths of despair and a friend’s surprise call sets him on a path he hadn’t considered since his bachelor years. He revisits boxes that hold years of abandoned research about “unexplained” archeological mysteries and then sets off to follow the trail of a mysterious artifact handed him by his friend. His path of discovery leads Frank to believe that many civilizations—much earlier than Mesopotamia—once existed on Earth and that each met a cataclysmic fate. Did alien visitors arrive to “jumpstart” human civilization again and again? In this trilogy, Frank and a group of friends uncover clues in Mexico, Japan and the Bermuda Triangle and come up with answers that are truly ”out of this world.”
My March 2008 release: TRIANGLE, the third and last novel in the Seeds Of Civilization series (Mystery/adventure with a SciFi twist). Look for it in all major online stores and IndieBound affiliate sites. As with the first two books in this series, the storyline of Triangle is drawn from a real, unexplained archaeological mystery. The ruins off the coast of Cuba were first reported in July, 2000, and underwater archaeological research in the Bahamas may soon change the history of human civilizations. By the time you finish this book, it may have to be classified as fact rather than fiction! _________________________
