The paths of an ancient Mayan queen, a sheriff haunted by a
troubled past and a beautiful cartel boss intersect when the
violence of the Mexican drug wars spills across the border into
Staunton, Arizona. While Sheriff Jimmy Harris grapples with the
murder of a United States Senator's son, the violence spins out of
control and a daughter he has never met is suddenly thrown in
harm's way. As Jimmy Harris pursues the beautiful but dangerous
cartel boss, he is increasingly attracted to her and forced to
confront the shadowy boundary between good and evil. When the
notorious drug dealer Derinda Pretty arrives in town, Jimmy must
choose between abiding by the law, or doing what he believes is
right. All the while, the mysterious loner Indian Joe prowls the
fringes of reality. The Jaguar Queen is an electrifying thriller, a
story of passionate love and chilling, otherworldly secrets.

The Kremlin can be a very funny place when the vodka-swilling
Director of Russian Intelligence steals a major's wife who claims
to be an ex-nun but is actually a serial spouse murderer. Things go
further awry when the Grand Duke of Aridia is assassinated by the
palace parrots. "This is the work of the Americans," the colonel
decides. "They are trying to take over the country and we must stop
them." However, the new duke has his own his own problems. He
wishes to find a wife but he is very shy, and only speaks to people
by talking into a blue toy telephone. This is not very romantic.
Major Koblinka must take things into his own hands and find a wife
for the duke while dealing with the unhinged royal family.

Framed by chilling historical fact and edge of the seat adventure,
two college professors and a beautiful Indian shaman suddenly find
themselves in a gripping time travel odyssey which may cost them
their lives Peter Krause is a twenty-eight year old German physics
professor in 1935. David Kelly is a thirty-four year old history
professor in Arizona in 2010. In the closing days of World War Two
Adolf Hitler retreated to his Fuhrerbunker in Berlin. Surrounded by
thousands of Russian troops, no escape was possible. Hitler
committed suicide on April 30, 1945. David is aware of this fact.
Peter Krause will be there when it happens. In May of 1945, not
believing Hitler was dead, the Russian leader Josef Stalin sent
SMERSH (Russian Intelligence) agents to Berlin to determine the
facts. In June of 1945, SMERSH obtained a bullet pierced fragment
of Hitler's skull and the definitive proof he died in the
Fuhrerbunker. In 2009, a DNA analysis by the genetics laboratory of
the University of Connecticut revealed the "Hitler skull fragment"
actually belonged to a woman less than forty years old. That
discovery eliminated the only proof Adolf Hitler died in the
Fuhrerbunker in 1945. Lomasi Goodwater is a Navajo shaman living in
the Arizona desert in 2010. She is haunted by visions of George
Washington being assassinated on the eve of the Revolutionary War.
A mysterious man named Tse will set in motion a terrifying journey
across continents and centuries which will bring Peter, David and
Lomasi together to confront the greatest evil civilization has ever
faced.

agency and a Nazi nuclear weapons factory cause the lives of two
women from different times to spin out of control. World War II
ended in 1945, but a bizarre incident on an American bomber on a
forgotten raid over Germany now threatens the security of the
United States. In late July, 1947, Brittany Beardsley had
reservations on a flight to Las Vegas where she was to be married
the next day. Her flight crashed on takeoff killing all on board in
the fiery accident. That she had missed the plane while her fiance
made it were not accidents. In the present time, school teacher
Kate Darron's bad day gets much worse when a strange woman wearing
clothes from another era knocks on her apartment door. Kate is
troubled that the woman seems to know every detail of her life.
"Who are you?" Kate asks. "Think of me as the fairy godmother of
death," the woman replies. "You shall be dead in less than half an
hour." These unrelated incidents bring Kate and Brittany together
as they are forced to undertake a terrifying mission across
continents and time, one on which survival is not an option.
