Here's a quick synopsis of my current Works-In-Progress.
Eloquence - draft
In a steampunk alternate England called Albion, King John-Leroy IV rules the land of Collinsmere peacefully, until he is brutally murdered on the night of a dinner party at the palace. The event leaves no one to rule but his eighteen-year-old daughter, Princess Elaine. No woman has ever ruled Collinsmere before. Determined to solve the mystery of her father's death, Elaine hires a quirky but prodigious detective by the name of Christian Rhys, and enlists the help of her long-time friend and mentor Royal Doctor Lawrence Husher. Whispers travel the corridors of the palace and the streets below, spreading rumours that the killer will strike again, while the young Queen struggles to learn her new duties. Can Elaine win over her people and uncover the secrets behind the King's murder before it is too late?
Semblance: Book One in the Remarkable Company Series - rewrite
Fifteen-year-old Jordan Elliott never considered her family above average. It’s not until she accidentally crashes through the living room wall that it’s evident she's developed super strength powers - and with this she's introduced to her parents' secret past life as agents of the Remarkable Company.
Hayden Connor, a boy with the ability to manipulate ice, has lived his life surrounded by old members of the Remarkable Company, wishing that it still existed. Why did the company shut down and stop rescuing people? What secrets are the past members hiding?
Sienna Hawthorn is the only person in her family with healing powers. She's been able to do this since she was twelve, but it's only now that she and Hayden reveal themselves to one another.
As the three meet in training sessions and become friends, the adventurous idea of using their powers in the outside world to help other people becomes very appealing. Thompson Lewis, back in town for the first time after the death of his agent parents ten years ago, is intrigued by the idea and agrees to help the trio kick-start their mission. Armed with identity-concealing costumes and an apple-green getaway car, the three heroes and their leader begin a dangerous double-life … normal teenagers by day, heroic crime-fighters by night. Little do they know just how many people are after them....
