{Warning Mature Language and Content} Private Magdalena Wallace just wants to drink coffee and kick ass. Surviving the terrorizing blight plague made her stronger and grateful. It's worth the monthly trips to the hospital to be healthy and alive. It's worth the scorn and stigma to be able to spin webs and sense danger. And it's worth being mocked by her fellow officers to protect and serve her city. But a web of lies is slowly unfolding. Rapid assaults, corporate scumbags, and a betrayal of trust. Balancing a new lease on life and putting your life on the line makes for a stunning conflict. How far can Magdalena go to protect her friends, her family, and the music man of her dreams? The mystery unfolds in "Where Snapdragons Lie".

They say there were once billions of people who lived on this earth before the Great Rain. The murderous, toxic rain. But our ancestors saw it coming, and before the rain came, they built a sphere of life, where it's safe to breathe the air, and it's safe to drink the water. They called it: Eden. But Eden was not big enough for everyone; refugees came, by the millions, but our ancestors turned them down; left them to die in the waste land. And the few hundred that survived were forced to work for Eden, to maintain it from the outside, where few of us dared to go. We called them the Keepers. We need them, and they need us, everyone wins. But some win more than others.
