LIVONIA, Mich. - s4story -- gritty and bold saga about love lost and found set against the backdrop of Spain and London, The Indigo Chronicles mixes contemporary fantasy, romance, history, and esoteric mystery, focusing on destiny and the invisible threads that bind us.

"The idea for the series came directly from my imagination," says author N.J. Simmonds. "There is a certain 'truth' to many of the past life, spiritual, and angelic references. In 2005, I backpacked around Australia and Asia for fifteen months, and in that time I studied a variety of topics, from astrology and gem stones to reiki and meditation."

When Son of Secrets opens, Ella has been waiting for Zac for three years. Although she's convinced he'll return for her, fate has other plans. But Ella's not the only one missing Zac. Luci has been searching for her blue-eyed boy for over two millennia and will stop at nothing to get him back—even if that means tracking down the only girl he's ever loved. From Tuscany 5BC to 17th century witch hunts, Ella, Zac, Luci, and Sebastian's lives have been forever intertwined. The time has finally come to complete the circle.
