Book #2
The Insider

By Beverly-Blackman Mounce

What does it take to be a hero?

A ranch in Texas is hit by a tornado. What seems like a normal ranch however isn't. A space travel portal is in a large oak tree and is compromised in the storm. Through that tree, Earth was able to strike an alliance with another planet in another solar system. Now things could go very wrong, especially since Sam (the tree) is hurt in the storm and starts oozing special alien birthing fluids and portal chemicals.

Who could help with this precarious situation? Could it perhaps be one of the humans who has witnessed the formation of an intergalactic alliance just last Christmas? Or maybe the hero had to be someone who knew nothing of the tree and how it came to be. Maybe the best person to help is an outsider becoming an unsuspecting insider.

Sometimes we have to chose between family and the greater good. What would you do? Read to see what happens to special family and friends on a ranch in the heart of Texas.
