Lauren Grayson has encountered Bigfoot, UFOs, even pirates. But now she has to go head-to-head with a god... Dr. Lauren Grayson is determined to see the voodoo priest, Papa Dauphine, brought to justice for his attempted murder of Rowan, her husband and co-host of The Veritas Codex tv show. But Dauphine aligns himself with Lauren's mortal enemy, Enlil, creating an overpowering alliance. Dauphine captures Rowan and forces him to find an ancient weapon that could give Enlil the power to control the world, while Enlil gathers his forces to topple the greatest peace accord ever brokered. Isolated from her husband, Lauren works to protect her family as dark forces close in on her. The more she investigates, the more she becomes convinced that although Enril wants the world, he first wants what is most precious to her-Rowan. And he will stop at nothing until Rowan has been eliminated. Can Lauren defeat a god, prevent him from gaining control of an ancient weapon of apocalyptic power, and save her husband? Is love enough to prevent the collapse of the greatest peace accord ever brokered? And if peace fails, can worldwide chaos be far behind? Uncover the truth in The King's Ransom!
