Belial

Professor Delaney McPhearson's life is turned upside down when her best friend, archaeologist Drew Masters, is found dead. Before she can deal with the heartbreaking loss, she is viciously attacked in her home by a man with inhuman fighting abilities. Former Navy SEAL and head of security for a global think tank, Jake Rogan drops everything when he hears his foster brother, Tom Jeffries, has gone missing. There seem to be no clues, no information about his whereabouts. He has just vanished. But Jake won't rest until he finds him.

Delaney McPhearson is back in the second edge-of-your-seat novel in the best-selling Belial Series. Over decades, evidence of an incredible treasure, hidden in the forests of Ecuador, had been gathered by a Roman Catholic priest. The rumors of the treasure date back to the Conquistadors and tales of storehouses filled with Incan gold. But Professor Delaney McPhearson believes the treasure is older than the Incans. Much older. Rumor has it that as Atlantis was coming to an end, three libraries of knowledge and artifacts were hidden across the globe.

In the last two years, Professor Delaney McPhearson has uncovered two Atlantis sites. Each time, she's lost people. Now, all she wants to do is enjoy the peace with her love, Jake Rogan, and those she cares about. But fate has a different idea. Plans are in motion for Laney, Jake, and Henry Chandler that stretch back thousands of years and across the globe to a mysterious, ancient Egyptian necropolis.

Life has not been easy for 15-year old Lou Thomas. In the last few years, her once happy family has been whittled down to just herself and her unreliable older sister Charlotte. It's been a daily struggle to make it through. And it's about to get worse. Because Lou's abilities—enhanced strength, speed, and healing—have just awakened. While Lou may not understand what is happening to her, another group does. And they won't let anyone get in the way of gathering their new recruit.

Life has not calmed down for Delaney McPhearson now that she has become the ring bearer. For the last few months, she, Henry Chandler, and Jake Rogan have been finding the camps of the teenage potentials left behind by Amar. In their search, they've come across something they didn't expect: More children are missing, but these children are younger—much younger. One of the largest lines of investigation leads them to legends of an ancient race of giants. But are they getting closer to the missing children or heading down a path that will only lead them farther away?

A powerful relic was hidden eons ago to protect mankind. If it’s uncovered, our world will change forever. The key to this ancient danger is none other than Victoria Chandler. No one knows who she really is, or more importantly, what her role is in the fight against the fallen angels. But Victoria’s time for secrecy is over. Now she must step out of the shadows and take her rightful place in mankind’s history. With every step, the danger will grow more severe and the stakes ever higher. And in this battle, not everyone will be standing when the dust clears.

The world is reaching a crisis point as an ancient threat re-emerges. And the clock has just begun to tick on a whole new battlefront. the Fallen have made themselves known across the globe. Laney is being pulled from one crisis to another. But soon, a new threat arises that requires all of her focus.

Delaney McPhearson has faced danger after danger. And along the way, she's lost a great deal. Some would say too much. For the first time, she has fully embraced who she is—and what's expected of her. She's ready to take on whatever her destiny puts in her path. At the same time, another power rises with a plan of its own.

Delaney McPhearson has been made a public pariah. She barely escaped with her life from Colorado when law enforcement agents moved in. And she cannot take credit for that escape. No, that credit belongs to one man, Drake—Las Vegas entertainer, sabbatical-taking archangel, and consummate egoist. Drake's help, though, is not without strings. He has an agenda, too. He knows for Laney to move forward, she must first delve into her past—she must remember her life as Helen of Troy.

Six months have passed since Delaney McPhearson went missing. And during that time, things have not been going well for Jake Rogan. He's been heading up the search for Laney. Every lead he's run down has only led to frustration and disappointment. But now, a situation has developed that steals his attention. And that's not the only thing that is being stolen—children are disappearing across the globe. Jake has a new mission and a new goal—to find those children.

Long before Delaney McPhearson learned of her destiny, a brave group of women defended a heritage that would one day aid us all. The history of the forces working to protect the world extends far beyond the time of Delaney McPhearson. One of the first tests of those chosen to defend the good in the New World dates back to one of the uglier times in American history: the Salem Witch Trials.

It's the final showdown. But Elisabeta is a strategist of the highest caliber. Everyone keeps telling Delaney McPhearson that she is up for the task. But she cannot forget the brutality Elisabeta has already inflicted.

Delaney McPhearson is the only one with a chance to save a world gone mad. But to save everyone else, Laney must make the ultimate sacrifice. Since the coronation, Delaney McPhearson has been pulled from one crisis to another. She keeps moving forward, barely getting a chance to catch her breath.
