Description

After centuries of religiously motivated war, the world has been split in two. Now the Blessed Lands are ruled by pure faith, while in the Republic, reason is the guiding light—two different realms, kept apart and at peace by a treaty and an ocean. Children of the Republic, Helena and Jason were inseparable in their youth, until fate sent them down different paths. Grief and duty sidetracked Helena’s plans, and Jason came to detest the hollowness of his ambitions. These two damaged souls are reunited when a tiny boat from the Blessed Lands crashes onto the rocks near Helena’s home after an impossible journey across the forbidden ocean. On board is a single passenger, a nine-year-old girl named Kailani, who calls herself “the Daughter of the Sea and the Sky.” A new and perilous purpose binds Jason and Helena together again, as they vow to protect the lost innocent from the wrath of the authorities, no matter the risk to their future and freedom. But is the mysterious child simply a troubled little girl longing to return home? Or is she a powerful prophet sent to unravel the fabric of a godless Republic, as the outlaw leader of an illegal religious sect would have them believe? Whatever the answer, it will change them all forever… and perhaps their world as well.

Story Behind The Book

Larceny explores the consequences of corporate corruption in higher education and offers an explosive example of what could happen in such an environment when things go terribly wrong! Greed and lust trump morals and clear thinking when money becomes the burnt offering placed at the alter of a person's ego.

Reviews

Once you have a piece of the pie, you don't want to lose it, ever. "Larceny" is a criminal thriller telling the story of Richard Gillespie, self-made millionaire and head of a law firm that will take those millions with it. To keep his millions he enters a web of treachery and technology against university head Louis Jacobson, university executive Bridgette Lonerghan, and the inventions of Joseph Ralinski where murder may just become an option in pursuit of the almighty dollar. "Larceny" is a fine thriller where you don't know where the next turn will come from.
