Ebook description

An Indiana Jones-style caper across the desert of New Mexico; high-tech gadgets, a mystery and a romance. Alexia must protect the crystals that power the city of Haven. Going undercover and stealing the crystals seemed like a great idea--until a real thief showed up. Confessing her duplicity might help Chris, the attractive new security chief, but it would cost Alexia everything she holds dear.

Review by: Marisa on Sep. 04, 2010 :
I've liked it a lot. Very fast-paced, entertaining but not funny (if you know what I mean), characters with quite a few layers and an unexpected end. I think it worths reading it.

Review by: Kevin Argyle on April 28, 2010 :
A female psychiatrist, small / average in stature but with a dark secret, who works in a new community, a sort of experimental scientific City called Haven is powered in an unusual method, and also is trying out a different ways of doing things,

This “City” is mistrusted, misunderstood and definitely not the place to be, according to the ordinary local townsfolk who think Havens residents witches, weirdo’s or nutter’s.

OK, OK not all that thrilling you may think?

Wrong!

Not you might think a strong female lead character?

Wrong Again!

Our leading lady develops very quickly, and once the scene is set, the plot in this unusual story fairly speeds along and all the important characters soon grab the reader’s interest,

The conclusion is perhaps obvious, as is relationship development, but boy the author keeps you on the edge of your seat, wondering just how each problem might be solved in an attempt to save Haven

Oh and the psychiatrist, she’s an expert shot with any kind of gun and tough like old boot leather, yet vulnerable enough to bring out the big brother in us all

Can Dr Alexia Zimmerman save Haven, and herself whilst maintaining her secret?

Well to find out, you will have to read: -
