The Beals live in a upper
middle class neighborhood in the mid 1960's. Frank is a jingle
writer who is having more than a little trouble coming up with
a shoe polish jingle. Trying to keep up with the neighbor's
expensive tastes is a full time job in itself. But when Frank
butts heads with a Voodoo practicing Brazilian gardener, he
gets much more than he bargains for, especially when he is
distracted by all the spells flying back and forth, with a
force strong enough to turn his wife into a love-starved siren
and his children into well-behaved.

In Mysterious Ways

Lang Garret likes to keep to
himself, and often carries the label of anti-social. Still,
being an accomplished artist tends to make up for any negative
identifier, at least it does in his mind. That, mixed with
occasional periods of depression, moodiness and attacks of
mulishness provides an expected flair for his artistic nature.
Try telling that to his blues-singing fiancé, Amanda Howard.
After making an appearance at the Half Mile From The Sun art
gallery in Phoenix, Arizona, he and Amanda take an unexpected
tour in a remote area of Prescott. Curiosity isn’t a strong
enough word to describe the anticipation Lang feels when he is
told they will be visiting a recently-formed crop circle. His
curiosity soon turns to horror when the energy from the circle
begins to show its effect on anyone who dares to enter its
boundaries. How could they know that someone would die?
Transformations begin to take place in each individual in the
small tour group; transformations that continue even after
they’re safely back home. Or, are they really safe?
