I blinked and I went from not having any lemon cucumbers to having 30 of them. I am pretty sure I like lemon cucumbers. I sure hope I do. That would be a lot of lemon cucumbers not to like. I only planted one plant thinking I would just fill in a little open space I had, and see if I had any luck with them. I had lots of luck. I wonder if having bees living right next to them had anything to do with the plant’s success. All this time I thought my friends were planting too many plants, and that is why they were sneaking lemon cucumbers on all of their neighbors doorsteps. Nope, one plant will feed an army. I seriously wish I had this much success with pumpkins. For once in my life I didn’t plant pumpkins and I am almost feeling like I should have. As if this year would have been my lucky year. I had so much success with the lemon cucumbers, I might have just been planting on the wrong years… for the past five years.

India. When a nun is burned alive on the sacred ghats of Varanasi, and the stone she carried is stolen, an international hunt is triggered for the relics of the early church.

Forged in the fire and blood of martyrs, the Pentecost stones have been handed down through generations of Keepers who kept their power and locations secret.

Morgan must risk her own life to save her family, but will she ultimately be betrayed?

From ancient Christian sites in Spain, Italy and Israel to the far reaches of Iran and Tunisia, Morgan and Jake must track down the stones through the myths of the early church in a race against time before a new Pentecost is summoned, this time powered by the fires of evil.

The first in the ARKANE series, STONE OF FIRE is a fast-paced, action-packed thriller that explores the edges of faith against a backdrop of early Christian history, archaeology and psychology.
