Ancestry: AWAKENINGS: Ancestry Trilogy - Book 1 of 3

By Alan Wade Hounshell

Magic, passed down from generation to generation from an ancient tribe, is now at the doorstep of an unsuspecting family. Danger lurks everywhere as an evil tribal chief, Nuabani, banished to the dark abyss, seeks revenge against those who stripped him of his magic centuries ago. Since being banished, Nuabani has aligned himself with others who will stop at nothing to return all the magic to him, even if it includes harming or killing innocents. One person stands in his way - one of the tribe's descendants who wields the magic known as a Magica. Unfortunately, time is running out for this Magica, who must pass her magic to a descendant whose abilities must be awakened.

Unknowingly caught in the middle is Dr. Logan Tompkins, a renowned child/adolescent psychiatrist, trying to raise three children after recently losing his wife while dealing with his daughter Emma's nightmares and psychotic-like behaviors. Hoping to find answers to help his daughter, he moves his family to Virginia, where other children are experiencing the same sudden onset of symptoms. Like Emma, none of them have a history of psychosis or predisposing conditions that would explain their behaviors.

As Dr. Tompkins digs into his own family's past to save Emma, he will come face to face with his connection to Nuabani and discover secrets about his mother, who gave him up for adoption. Will Dr. Tompkins find the answers and strength to save his daughter and other children and embrace his ancestry? Can the mysterious Magica save the world and find the next descendant before it's too late?
