Description
David Bellotti’s only focus is to find his abducted twelve-year old daughter. When he sees her on a news segment with her captor, a renowned archaeologist who’s made a major discovery, David sets out to bring her back home. But the search leads him to a secret message that could alter man’s history forever.
A message David and his daughter inscribed twelve-thousand years ago.
A message that will prove dangerous in the wrong hands.
Protecting this powerful information seems simple until David realizes some people will use his daughter against him to get it, at whatever the cost. Now David must make a choice. Protect mankind from a secret past that must remain hidden, or save his little girl.

Excerpt
MD jumped on me as soon as the call went through. “You want to tell me what the hell you’re doing this time, Bellotti? Three busted stop signs, a frazzled small community in the middle of nowhere, and a sheriff’s department that’s chewing my ear off over your antics.”
“I got a lead on Ada and followed it. I’ll pay for the damages.” I gave her my version of the story.
“You’re an employee of PROs. You want to keep it that way?”
“I was shot at. Someone doesn’t want me to get Ada and I need to find out why.”
“None of that matters.”
“She’s my daughter.”
“You ever think about how you’re putting your daughter’s life in danger with these stunts?”
“They were shooting at me, not her, and I need to know why.”
“No. You don’t.”
“This isn’t about keeping a girl from her father,” I argued. “It’s something else. I’m getting closer to her and today was the first time someone pursued, intent on making a point.”
“Intent on getting you killed,” MD corrected.
“No. This woman was a good shot. If she wanted me dead, I’d have been dead.”
And that’s when it hit me, why the driver seemed so familiar.
I’d been too preoccupied with getting to Ada to realize she was Kyra Brand, the woman that died three years ago.

About the Author
Terri looks for any opportunity to make stuff up. She thinks anything that can’t so easily be explained is worth an extra look and often makes a great story. She loves red wine, scotch, sunrises, Ancient Egypt, the beach - and a host of other stuff that would take too much real estate to talk about. The youngest of five children, Terri lives with her husband and son on Long Island. And, in her next life, if she hasn’t moved on to somewhere else, she wants to be an astronomer. Terri’s fascinated with the night skies almost as much as she’s fascinated with ancient Egypt.
