Review & Description
Mitchell Seebeck's dying father, Jake, asks him to complete a research project. Mitch's attempt to fulfill his father's request turns into an exploration of hidden histories for him. The lost chronicles of the northern tier of the Eurasian continent and his personal history collide. The consequences of his
search will lead to a conclusion that propels Mitch Seebeck too close to voyeuristic glimpses into the past, too close to long held taboos, and too close to home.
About the thriller series, Time of the Swords:

"The novels are goundbreaking, eye-openers. They are sexy, intriguing, full of action, and not for the faint of heart. Adal provides information that will challenge all you know about the past."
--Charles Frey Hightower

Excerpt from The Emily Files©:
The night was cold and the hands on the wall clock moved slowly. At 4 AM, clouds moved over the lake and the night became darker. Somewhere, way off in the distance, a dog barked. Grram’s ears went up and he growled.
He startled Kira out of her sleep. Her heart pounded. She looked through a tiny opening in the blinds. “Mitch, wake up. I see movement down by the dock.”
