ABOUT
Dragon Ring:
 |
Something
mysterious and frightening happens to Nadine when she is very young,
causing her to deny her special abilities, and throw herself into
mastering virtual reality technology. Yet it is within a virtual
reality game where the mysterious again finds her –and does not
let go.
When Nadine’s father dies tragically, she goes off in search of
what he knew about a new alternative energy system, and as she discovers
the alarming truth about the energy source, she finds she can no
longer run from her true self –because the safety of the entire
Earth depends on it. She also discovers just why a company would
lie about the true nature of their energy system, and she must decide
what she is going to do with this knowledge. |
