The Scions of Atlantis: A Kat Hastings Novel, Turner Claudia

Former CIA analyst, Kat Hastings and her investigative reporter husband, Robbie OToole, have been in hiding for a year, trying to elude a brutal hitman seeking revenge. Theyre discovered and decide to separate but first, Robbie tells Kat about important information he needs her to find and protect at all costs. As Kat reluctantly boards her plane without Robbie, he calls and tells her hes been found, and she must search his duffle bag. She hears a loud whack followed by his agonizing moan, and then the line goes dead. She locates a slip of paper on which is scrawled, The Scions of Atlantis.

James Treadwell, an ultra-wealthy Boston businessman and a friend of Robbies from the sixties, has promised Kat safety in return for her analytical skills. Once a radical, Treadwell is now forming a new political party to counter the partisan politics crippling the nation. He claims his party will be one of integrity and unification, but Kat starts to wonder whether he is a member of the Scions of Atlantis, which Kat learns is an international cadre of rich and powerful puppet masters who pull the strings of the worlds leaders.

One of the rising recruits to Treadwells new party is Arab-American Adam Zuabi, who, despite the appearance of living the American dream, is actually a secret operative, the sword his father Adheem will use to decapitate the US government. To save the country and those she loves, Kat must unearth Zuabis plot, expose the Scions, and ascertain Treadwells true motives but first, she must overcome her own demons.

The Scions of Atlantis is told from Kat Hastings point of view interspersed with third-person narratives of Zuabis unfolding plot and interlaces todays headlines with the activism, music, and idealism of the sixties. The Scions of Atlantis will appeal to everyone who is concerned about current events in todays world. It is a sequel to Scars and Stripes Forever, rated five-stars on Amazon.
