Synopsis

When Naval officer Alecin Hamilton receives a mysterious summons from her dying grandfather, she has no idea she's about to inherit a cosmic responsibility. As one of twelve Guardians secretly established by Alexander Hamilton and other Founding Fathers after an alien encounter in 1797, Alecin is tasked with protecting humanity's future by finding pieces of an alien device known as the Appello.
 
When Guardians vote unanimously that humanity needs extraterrestrial intervention, Alecin becomes the Chosen One, thrust into a dangerous quest to assemble the Appello and call the Kalecians back to Earth. Joined by rocket scientist George Washington—a direct descendant of the first president—she races against shadowy corporate interests who want the advanced alien technology for themselves.
 
From Virginia to Philadelphia, from the Liberty Bell to the Capitol Building, Alecin and George follow cryptic clues left centuries ago, piecing together a cosmic puzzle while dodging bullets, kidnappings, and betrayal. As they develop feelings for each other, they must determine if their newfound love can survive the perils of their mission and the weight of safeguarding humanity's future.
 
With time running out and enemies closing in, Alecin must decide if humanity truly needs alien intervention—and if she's willing to sacrifice everything to make that call.
 
If you enjoyed "The Da Vinci Code," "Dark Matter," and "American Elsewhere," you'll love "The Quest for Harmony."

    The lost city lies beyond a locked gateway. But the key is not what it seems… 
    Now a map-maker extraordinaire, Finch must find the place Erebus so desperately seeks—although the “how” and “why” remain unclear. And a certain vengeful Necromancer is bent on beating Erebus to the punch, and he’d be more than happy to make Finch collateral damage. 
    With his friends’ lives on the line, Finch will fall back on his old trickster ways to get his hands on the gateway’s key. In secret, he plans to uncover a loophole, a way to end his servitude for good. The answer might lie in Erebus’s past servants and their storied history with the djinn... 
    The djinn have lost their connection to Erebus, and Raffe doesn’t know how much longer he can cope before his alter ego goes insane. That’s the only reason he agrees to travel halfway across the world to find answers for Finch. Raffe aches to end the djinn curse that threatens his future with Santana, but he’d have to achieve the impossible: separate himself from the demon within.

    In the world of this novel, said to be an inspiration for Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle, the Confederacy has triumphed and become an imperialist nation. What is left of the United States has been drained of its resources and is trapped in a depression. Hodge, a young man living in a village in rural New York with his parents, decides to head to the city to escape his otherwise inevitable future of poverty and indentured servitude. 
     
     
      
    But the specter of war between the Confederacy and the other great global power, the German Union, haunts the entire region, and a nationalist terrorist group has other plans for Hodge. Before long, he is swept up in the politics of the day and becomes involved with a beautiful physicist who is working on a machine intended to change his fate—and the fate of the world. 
     
     
      
    Long before Harry Turtledove's The Guns of the South, Bring the Jubilee was the first novel to pose the question "What if the South had won the Civil War?" A counterfactual classic, it was included in renowned science fiction editor David Pringle's list of the 100 Best Science Fiction Novels.
