Haley-database developer, CIA operative, and multiple
personality-is engaged to Willi Mayers. A violent act makes her
return home, then her father is murdered. Haley's alter ego
emerges, but, after Haley shows an assassin mercy, ends their
arrangement. Later, the duo begin work on a Tribulation Tracking
System. On the team is Patricia Candor, a born again Christian.
Seeing her faith makes agnostic Willi open to Christ, a decision
atheist Haley frets about. When the team is attacked, Willi can't
defend herself, so Haley sends her to the CIA's Farm for training.
Later, as women are abducted, Willi deduces the kidnapper is guided
by Revelations' Seal, Trumpet, and Vial judgments. Also, a cryptic
message is left at churches - the only way to the Father is through
the sunset of Christianity. After Al Qaeda recruits MS-13 to commit
terrorist acts, an enraged Willi renounces God and plans to execute
all involved. Haley must now deal with two mass murderers and a
woman he no longer trusts.
Maxine Kordell's high school reunion is marred when al-Qaeda
hijacks her plane, a female gang accosts her, her friend Marty
Blair is murdered, and she's threatened by a drug cartel, coyotes,
and the police. Joined by Mena Harling and Willi Mayers, 3-M
investigate, but are almost killed while in custody. Haley joins
them, but events intrude involving lost Francisco Goya paintings, a
Jim Bowie silver hoard, Sherlock Holmes, Pope Pius XII, The
Cluster, a list compiled by former Vice President Aldrich Fellerson
implicating The Vatican in war crimes, and a plan for hiding the
list devised by Holmes. So Pope John Paul II brings the foursome to
Rome, where they're caught in a feud between two cardinals and
become targets of the Mafia. 3-M and Haley soon learn their foes
include four professional assassins. Aided by born again
Christian/Sherlockian Nora Kelly, they find a letter from Holmes,
pursue the treasures and list, then Max must face Marty's killer,
whose lethality may exceed her own.
Mena Harling learns shoddy maintenance caused ThriftJet crashes,
one in which her brother died. Then a whistleblower is murdered, a
note left by his corpse-Too risky to fly; deny that, you'll die;
I'll watch your tears dry; your last sigh's my high. Aether. And
TOETIFTSA, who desecrated Nora Kelly's church, continues killing
Christians, leaving a note-Christian fundamentalism is not a
righteous pursuit. So Maxine Kordell, Nora, Willi Mayers, and Haley
join Mena. When Aether murders Cluster members, The Tracer asks for
help, and reveals The Cluster killed Will Rogers, Amelia Earhart,
and Glenn Miller. Then Aether attacks Dulles Airport and other
iconic aerospace sites, as TOETIFTSA causes the crash of a plane
carrying Christians, then tries to murder Nora. So Mena seeks help
from a notorious serial killer, a psychiatrist living in Italy, who
will profile Aether if the team agrees to a favor. Finally, events
push Mena to become the determined protector of certain sociopaths
just rewards.
Haley, suicidal after Willi's death, joins a CIA mission, then
finds her alive in the hands of slavers. As both face death, his
alter ego returns to kill her captors. Then past events intrude.
Valen, a Gnostic, forges a letter in Jesus' name, then Cesare
Borgia adapts it. Centuries later, the letter involves John McCone,
J. Edgar Hoover, four U.S. Presidents, Judy Garland, and Haley's
CIA mentor, George Durell. In 2000, Pope John Paul II receives the
letter, then asks the U.S. for help. But The Order Of The Gnostic
Cross, Church Of Triantology, and Raven H2O have their own plans,
as does female spy Jasus al-Mara, who enlists the aid of al-Qaeda
terrorist Karbala. Meanwhile, the shadowy Cluster pulls everyone's
strings, the unknown Termagant plots to destroy TGC, and a monster
carves TINPLUFORPLE on the torsos of little girls. When a letter
from George Durell surfaces, Haley and Willi again face violent
foes, but this time they have help-serial killers Maxine Kordell
and Mena Harling.
In New York City, database developers Haley and Willi foil an
attempt to blow up the Manhattan Bridge. Home again, in
Centreville, Virginia, a snobbish waiter brings out Willi's darker
side, so Haley insists she see a psychiatrist. Then, outside events
intrude. A serial killer is murdering pedophiles. A second killer
is eliminating famous people who escaped justice, leaving behind a
cryptic note-To the determined protector of my just reward. A third
killer is murdering parents and daughters, then leaving bizarre
notes citing songs about Bill. A hostile takeover of their employer
is underway, using The Stroller, an assassin, to ensure the sale.
Nora Kelly, an evangelical friend presumed dead in the Sudan,
returns, mysteriously saved by Raven H2O, a security contractor
known for its ruthlessness. When friends are killed, the twosome
are drawn into the tangled web of serial murders, and Haley must
deal with the distinct possibility Willi may be one of the killers.
Life hasn't been kind to Haley. In his early 30's, a database
developer, and once a covert CIA operative, he has an alter ego who
emerges when violence threatens. A half Irish, half Jewish orphan,
he retreated to a workaholic existence after his wife died in an
accident. Then Haley met Montana-born Episcopalian, Willi Mayers, a
master at verbal jousting, able to eat enormous quantities of food
without gaining weight. As they develop a Cultural Landscapes
System for the National Park Service, a cryptic note appears with
the message 3912. More notes appear, and Haley's formerly
submissive alter ego becomes aggressive. In Montana, Haley tries to
effect a rapprochement between Willi and her father, only to return
home to face a personal tragedy that frees his alter ego to take
vengeance on a merciless killer. His future with Willi at stake,
Haley must confront a violent adversary from his past, while
deciphering the true meaning and intent of the notes.
3 billion years ago, an alien evolution experiment began, then they
ended the age of dinosaurs to protect that experiment. Later, they
performed three human makeovers-Jesus Of Nazareth, Galileo, and a
72 year old man named Sam. In 2016, a spacecraft lands in Virginia
carrying Sam-now The Emissary-who reveals an hypothesis to be
tested-Science as an organizing principle is compatible with
species survivability and longevity. With Sam is BC. who appears as
a platinum rod, a wooden staff, a Border Collie, and a giant
tarantula. Sam explains the experiment is threatened by religious
fundamentalism, so to usher in an Age Of Science, Sam confronts a
variety of believers and unbelievers. But superstition is hard to
overcome, and when fanatics attempt to assassinate them, BC wreaks
havoc. Then Sam reveals an unimpeachable witness, whose testimony
rocks the world. But the aliens have a hidden motive, one that
forces humanity to confront an unworldly terror that threatens
their very existence.
Haley and 3-M plan to kill The Termagant, but at a movie house, a
clown opens fire, kills two people, and leaves an enigmatic
note-What Would J Do? Thus begins an endgame rooted in 1635,
conflating the psychotic Lomi; a killing machine named Ubeltater;
natural philosopher Marin Mersenne; movie icon James Cagney; and
the prime numbers series. Meanwhile, The Termagant leaves a
prophetic note-Your demises shall be my right hand's gift, but how
shall I do it? Asked and answered. Soon, serial killer La Boheme
begins murdering women, cutting out a section of cheek, and also
leaving a note-She's so perfect now, my chef-d'oeuvre. As the clown
shootings escalate, Haley and 3-M engage in a battle at Kings
Dominion, then learn a massacre to be seen by millions is being
planned. But as they hunt the killers, the beasts decide to target
their families, stoking Willi's long repressed savagery. After
deducing The Termagant's identity, she hides her discovery, then
confronts the killer on her own.
