Alice Drake and the Crystals of Eden

Tulip Cross has spent her life as a wonderful free spirit. She never asked for any of this. Yet, being Sanford Cross’ daughter put her at risk. Stanley Hendricks is a billionaire oligarch who is relentless in his desire to possess the Paragons spiritual powers. His kidnapping of Tulip will just be the first of many attempts to get what he wants.

The most profound impact is on Tulip Cross herself. She matures into an ambitious and focused US Navy Officer and carefully hides the fact that she is the most powerful Paragon of them all. Sanford and the other Paragons agre

In a world where shadows loom over the light of freedom, Tulip Cross stood as a beacon of hope, albeit a reluctant one. The daughter of Sanford Cross—an enigmatic figure among the Paragons, those beings steeped in ancient wisdom and spiritual power—she grappled with the weight of an inheritance she never sought. Tulip loved the vibrancy of life: the laughter of friends, the smell of the sea, the rush of wind through her hair as she roamed the coastal landscapes of her childhood. Yet, that joy was a fragile facade. Beneath it lay a churning current of dangers inherited from her lineage, threatening to drown her spirit.
