Book 1: Mauna Kea Rising
Lost in the multiverse, Hellen Callahan is an unemployed, single mother trying to steer her son into adulthood. Then the lights go out.
It’s the summer of 2025, in a parallel universe where the British Hawaiian Islands sit between rival superpowers, Britain and Japan. Hellen only wants to take her son on a sailing voyage to Hawaii in hopes of recapturing the bond they once shared. When she steps aboard, she discovers the skipper is a lost love from decades in her past…
But all isn’t smooth sailing. Isolated on the high seas, the crew of four is oblivious of a catastrophic solar flare. Throughout the Pacific, power grids fail. Cities plunge into darkness. Upon reaching Honolulu, the crew finds sweeping unrest. For Hellen and her son, going ashore to await evacuation to the mainland could cost them their lives. But staying aboard and seeking sanctuary on another island risks her hope of ever returning home.
Seamlessly merging mind-bending questions with high action, Mauna Kea Rising is the first book in a new science fiction series. Science, Buddhism and romance converge in this intense adventure in the multiverse.
