The Edge of Dawn
The final battle approaches between a band of modern paladins, who fight for the light of science and reason, try to save the world from an ancient supernatural army
What do you do when the Earth is under assault from monstrous creatures from alternate dimensions, and you’re the only person who can wield the weapon that can destroy them? That’s the situation facing Richard Oort, hero of the Edge novels.
Lonely and overwhelmed after a series of terrifying, catastrophic global and person events, Richard is still determined to save the world from the horrific Old Ones. He goes undercover in a Christian fundamentalist compound, playing house with an attractive FBI agent. At first, this only serves to increase his lonliness, missing his real family, but against all odds discovers another unique human who can use the paladin’s weapon, one who might be able to join him and lighten the burden of responsibility. There’s only one problem — Mosi is a nine year old Navajo girl.
Their enemies are trying to kill both Richard and Mosi — and they've already killed Mosi's family. To keep her safe Richard becomes her guardian, but an error in judgement leads to disaster and betrayal, and now the odd pair will need to summon all their strength to survive the coming battle. From the American southwest to a secret society in Turkey, the paladin and his ward try to stay in front of their enemies, but the world is at stake — and time is running short.
