The Island Builders
Summary
The Island Builders stands alone in a vast collection of apocalyptic, dystopian stories. Imagine coastal dwellers around the world wake one morning to discover islands occupying what yesterday was open sea. Now imagine governments rattling sabers to claim these new lands, yet so far, not a single person has been able to set foot on one of them. Then, people begin to go missing. First by the thousands, then hundreds of thousands, they vanish at an exponential rate until hundreds of millions have disappeared without a trace. When the number of missing reaches critical mass, civilization’s wheels fall off. Life gets hard and mean, fast. The story follows a rogue physicist, an unstable president, and a beautiful TV reporter in a desperate, mean, dehumanized world that ends not with a bang, or a whimper, but with a sigh.

The Boy in the Well
Summary
John Ryan never killed anyone; never even fired a gun in Vietnam. He worked in an air-conditioned building in the safest city in Vietnam. If you had to fight a war, this was the way to do it.
Friends, parties, weed, and rock n' roll filled their nights. Laughter and comradery were plentiful. They thought they would serve their tour and escape back to the real world without wounds.
War leaves no one untouched. No one escapes. All wounds are not from bullets.

Alien Agenda
Summary
Narrated by a rogue keeper of government secrets, this fact-based thriller begins with the death of America's first Secretary of Defense, James Forrestal, and posits he did not commit suicide but was killed for what he was about to reveal. The story follows the trail of government research past the Manhattan Project and pulls that team of famous physicists to work on Project Rainbow, an outgrowth of secret research during World War II. Real history and real science make this story compelling and not easily dismissed even by UFO reports' most cynical critics. The evidence eventually leads to answer the big questions: what brought the visitors, why have they stayed, what do they want? Hunted by a high-tech FBI unit, the narrator eludes capture and sets a kidnapping in motion that reveals the existence of Melanie, a 10 year old girl prized by the visitors and held captive by the government. More liberators than kidnappers, the group narrowly escapes numerous international agencies engaged in pursuit and delivers Melanie to a remote part of the world where she is safe - for now.

Long Claws
Summary
"...darkly fabulous storytelling." The clan activates an Indian mound deep in southern forests and enters our world - hungry for defenseless prey. Torrential rains and washed out bridges force a runaway teen, an old dowser, and a Cherokee healer to face the horrors of the clan's merciless onslaught. The long claws' skill, speed, strength, and intelligence make them powerful predators unlike anything in human history.
