The Adventures of Punkin and Boo
In the best tradition of Franklin W. Dixon’s The Hardy Boys mysteries and Carolyn Keene’s Nancy Drew mystery stories, comes The Adventures of Punkin and Boo, an exciting series of adventure/mystery stories for young children, tweens, and teens (adults will also enjoy them.) Featuring Hannah Roberts (Boo) and Jacie Masters (Punkin), these are the adventures of two teenage cousins who meet for the first time on a summer vacation and fall right into an on-going series of action-packed, page turning, “can’t-put-em-down” books that will delight young readers and have them asking for more of The Adventures of Punkin and Boo.
The Mystery of Ghost Dancer Ranch
Against their wishes, cousins Jacie Masters (Punkin) and Hannah Roberts (Boo) are thrown together for the summer at their grandparents’ Ghost Dancer Ranch. What starts as a very boring summer turns dangerous when they find themselves in the middle of an insidious plot to steal the ranch and turn it into a casino. Clinging to their faith, and with the help of a guardian angel and Jack Wilson, a young Native American man who hopes to lead his people back to prosperity and power through the resurrection of the Ghost Dancer Religion, Punkin and Boo overcome all obstacles to solve the mystery and save the ranch.
The Mystery of Ghost Dancer Ranch is the first book in an adventure series for older children, teens and young adults (adults like it too!), and sets forth spiritual values using the historical background of the Ghost Dancer rebellion of the late 1800s. The setting is a beautiful old ranch on 1500 acres in Petaluma that was built on the ruins of a Spanish Mission, with secret passages and hidden treasure, both material and spiritual. Like Franklin W. Dixon’s The Hardy Boys mysteries, this book is action-packed, and like Frank Peretti’s novels, it includes angelic and demonic forces that battle over the outcome. At 27,000+ words, it makes for a quick and easy read, and leaves readers wanting more of The Adventures of Punkin and Boo.

The Lost Coast
A family trip turns into a deadly adventure when Punkin and Boo stumble onto the operations of a ruthless gang of marijuana smugglers. When the gang discovers that Boo’s dad is there to buy land for a resort, they kidnap the girls’ families to keep them from discovering the gang’s secret pot gardens. With the help of an undercover DEA agent, the girls escape into the untamed Sinkyone Wilderness on the wild Lost Coast of northern California. They face much danger as they seek to elude the gang, find their parents, and bring the criminals to justice.
Pursued by a desperate gangster known only as “El Fuente” and some very evil fallen angels, the girls discover anew the reality of God’s protecting hand over them, and the wonder of lost souls coming to know their Savior. They also find unlooked-for help from some mysterious treasure hunters and their old friend Jack Wilson, as they solve the mystery of the Lost Coast.
