The Fourth Descendant
When Michelle gets a phone call from a historian of Richmond, sees an opportunity to be part of an adventure that will be essential. All you have to do is find a key more than a century old. Three more people -- a guitarist, an engineer and a retiree -- receive similar calls. Each family owns one of the four keys needed to open the lock of a safe that was found buried in a courthouse in Virginia, although the connection between these people is as mysterious as the safe itself. It was not supposed that their ancestors interacted, there was no apparent reason to bury the box and should not be gone forever after hiding the box. With your keys, Michelle and the other descendants converge in the basement of the courthouse and open the safe, revealing the truth about their ancestors: a strange, most fatal and most likely to change the world forever true than any other they could have imagined.

The Seventh Seed
While researching the cause of beehive demise across the country, Javier stumbles onto a breakthrough-a virus carried by bugs that insecticides can't eradicate. The discovery explains a string of illnesses and deaths, and it means a vaccine is possible. But instead of his achievement being celebrated, his bosses try to kill him. After evading capture, Javier meets Liz, a widow who works at a homeless shelter. Together, they become fugitives, and in searching for a vaccine, they discover an intricate chain of secrets that leads to the most powerful entities in the country. Now, to break the chain and free the people, Javier and Liz must fight an impossible battle. While winning means relief from decades of manipulation and oppression, losing would result in more deaths than the virus ever threatened. "This standalone sequel to The Fourth Descendant is absolutely gripping from the opening words. Fast paced and intense, it is an amazing story ripped from today's headlines by way of the brilliant imagination of Allison Maruska. If you liked The Fourth Descendant, you will love The Seventh Seed." Dan Alatorre, author of An Angel On Her Shoulder
