The Probing — Multiple Authors

Four books in one! Five characters--with gifts they do not fully understand-- are mysteriously brought together to battle growing pockets of darkness throughout the world: Brenda -- the street-hustling tattoo artist who sees images of the future. The Professor -- the atheist ex-priest ruled by logic. Andi -- the professor's brilliant-but-geeky assistant who sees inexplicable patterns. Tank -- the naïve, big-hearted jock with a surprising connection to a healing power. Daniel -- the institutionalized ten-year-old who can see into the supernatural world. LEVIATHAN: The team is flown to Hollywood as honored guests to watch the taping of the new TV pilot, Live or Die, the Ultimate Reality. Little do they realize the depths of darkness they are about to enter -- a darkness that, unless they stop it, will soon spread across the globe. THE MIND PIRATES: An earring with mysterious powers, bizarre visions and memories of a murder, and a kidnapping by 17th Century pirates hurl the Harbinger team into a 21st Century mystery involving international finance, high tech piracy, and the ruthless scheming of an evil, hidden nemesis. HYBRIDS:Why does the sight of two children chill Andi's bones? Once again, the team meets at Andi's grandparents' home for some much-needed rest and relaxation. But the professor seems preoccupied with more than the academic speech he has to deliver, and when some mysterious black-eyed children visit the woman next door, Andi and her friends are caught up in a situation unlike any they have experienced thus far. THE VILLAGE:The team arrives in Newland, North Carolina, confused, uncertain, and emotionally wounded. Expecting the kind of warm greeting that is legendary in southern towns, they find instead a village whose people want nothing more than to force the “tourists” to move on, something our team refuses to do. Then, in a blink of an eye, a painful transition takes place. Everything changes -- and not for the good. Newland has become New Land, a place similar to the one where they had just spent the night. Sadly, similar isn't enough. With the help of someone they remember as a lost little girl, they undertake the most challenging mystery they've ever faced. They must succeed; the lives of scores of people as well as their own depend on the solving of a problem they barely understand. The clock is running out for them and it is running fast.
