Snatched as a young child from a loving family, Julen longs to be freed from slavery and to have a home and family of her own. Watching from the shadows of the great house, she imagines what it would be like if her master’s son Damon just looked her way and smiled. But Damon prepares for the voyage of his life—one that will carry him to places he never imagined, and one that will entangle both their lives in a sinister plot to overthrow the kingdom of Bellacosa. Guided by a cryptic message from the past and a mysterious diary, Julen, Damon, Jip and Bina run for their lives and seek the help of a mythical stranger. Will they find him before it is too late? Can he save them from the powerful dragon god, Leviathan? Based on Psalm 107 in the Bible, The Treasures of Darkness is the first of two stories of adventure, mystery, and rescue.
Psalm 107 comes to life in this adventure story set in the ancient and mythical land of Bellacosa.
The Treasures of Darkness was written with families in mind. Adventure, mystery and action are combined with images containing biblical truth as the characters cry out to an unseen power for help and rescue. The story avoids graphic violence and “good” magic, and instead presents “family friendly” conflict and miraculous intervention. A sequel is currently being written.
