Death's Bright Angel, Part One: The Prophecy, is the sequel to Jagged Edges. Four months after the death of Virginia Montgomery, Dr. Glen Abbott is still mourning his young wife's untimely death. Moreover, he is extremely worried about their 3 yr-old daughter, Hannah, who does not understand why her mother is no longer around. Once a bright, precocious child, Hannah has begun to withdraw into herself. Abbott seeks help from Hannah's godfather, John Hanson, the former director of Camps Silverwood and Pinefall. Hanson is quick to theorize that Hannah may be endowed with prenatal memories and that she is keeping secrets and her own council. It soon becomes apparent that Hannah is not regressing but her development is taking an extraordinary turn. With the arrival of Hannah's cousin, Mairi-Lea Hartford, from Braemore, Scotland, the true nature of Hannah's endowment is revealed. Hartford, a Druid High Priestess and the daughter of the late John Hartford, has her own supernatural abilities. She has come to Abbott Hall to mentor Hannah. The child is The Chosen One; a special child with a purpose and with powers unimaginable. Hannah's destiny is to fulfill a Druid Prophecy to avoid the coming Apocalypse, an Extinction Level Event. To Glen Abbott's chagrin, the fate of the planet will rest on the shoulders of his small child.

A Bridge Across Forever, sequel to Death’s Bright Angel, Part Two: Sacred Ground, is the final installment in the Sacred Ground Trilogy. There are two separate time-lines. As the story opens, it is 2019 and Dr. Glen Abbott has traveled to Scotland to meet with Mairi-Lea Hartford at the insistence of Gaia Magni, the Supreme Spiritual Being charged with restoring harmony and balance to Nature and preventing a Sixth Extinction Level Event (ELE). Gaia Magni has taken control of Earth. She is prepared, if necessary, to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth in order to protect the millions of other species in the Biosphere. But Earth has lost her resiliency and Gaia Magni is forced to adopt extreme measures in order to save Nature and humanity. She seeks help from the late John Hartford, the brilliant theoretical physicist assassinated in 1983 by the Soviet Union. Gaia Magni requires Hartford’s unique understanding of quantum theory to build a Galactic Bridge that will link Earth with Echo, the new world she has created 70,000 light years across the galaxy. Echo is humanity’s last chance to live in harmony and balance with Nature. But a visit to an Alternate Reality reveals a devastating future for Earth. The Doomsday Clock is ticking and it is a race against Time to save the Biosphere. In the alternate reality of 2017, Glen Abbott’s relationship with Virginia Montgomery is failing. She suffers from a retrograde amnesia that has left her without any emotional connection to her daughter or husband. Their marriage is on the rocks and he fears he has lost his chance to reclaim the love and contentment they had enjoyed before her death in 2018. In desperation, he tells her the truth; that he is from the future and that their daughter, Hannah, will evolve into Gaia Magni upon her Ascension. But can Montgomery, who has her own demons to contend with, believe him? Trust him? Ever love him again?

Sacred Ground is the sequel to Death’s Bright Angel, Part One: The Prophecy. The novel incorporates characters from both the Blackthorn and Silverwood Trilogies., tying together all of the author's previous novels. There are two Time Streams: 2016 and 2018/19, so the past and present are juxtaposed. As the story opens, Dr. Glen Abbott has awakened from a coma following surgery to remove a benign lesion from his brain, only to realize that he is now living two plus years in the past (2016). His young daughter, Hannah, after her transformation into the supreme spiritual being, Gaia Magni, during Samhain, The First Rite of Winter (2018), has sent him back in time to relive a portion of his life over again to free him from the heartbreak and despair of losing his wife and daughter. But there are numerous challenges ahead for Abbott as he attempts to navigate his way through his second life with knowledge of the future before him. Gaia Magni is the fulfillment of a Druid Prophecy. A supreme spiritual being, she is charged with restoring harmony and balance to Nature and preventing an Apocalypse, a Sixth Extinction Level Event (ELE) as the result of humanity’s relentless assault on Mother Earth. Armed with the Wisdom of the Ancients and the power of Dark Energy, Gaia Magni is truly omnipotent with powers unimaginable. She begins her campaign to rescue Earth and the Biosphere by first demonstrating her power to the world by affecting a global blackout that turns the Earth into a Black Marble. Though an “enlightened spirit”, Gaia Magni makes it clear to everyone that she is prepared, if necessary, to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth in order to protect the millions of other species in the Biosphere on the brink of extinction as a result of humanity’s wanton destruction of the natural world. But there are those in governments and billion-dollar corporations who vigorously oppose the Rules of Natural Law that Gaia Magni has imposed and resist The Way Forward. They are intent on keeping their wealth and power at all costs, even if it means the end of humanity...
