HEART FORCE, the expanded third-person version of the parallel HIGH HEART novel, introducing the action sub-plot that our heroes Jack and Mahalena are unaware of - that a Google acquisition team is pushing to get their hands on illegal software to secretly manipulate people's minds and emotions.
This longer version reveals the whole complex plot of the projected 7-episode TV film version of the HIGH HEART / HEART FORCE story.
How far would you go to eliminate terrorism? Brilliant American mood-psych scientists have secretly developed the means of zapping terrorist minds through targeted satellite broadcasts - but now their own team goes half-crazy as they fight over who's to get zapped.
TEN%MAX exposes the final week before a monstrous planetary-wide attack is delivered by the supposed good-guys.
Breaking himself free from an insideous hypnotic condition, Ben Hadley remembers doing illegal viral research ten years ago, and writes a tell-all about the head scientist and the CIA. When his literary agent is murdered at the Frankfurt Book Faire, Benjy teams with a remarkable (and deadly) Rumanian woman to pursue the scientist - and destroy his deadly virus that will otherwise make most women infertile.
Prequel to The Jade Phallus, this unique murder mystery, based solidly on historic fact, takes us back to San Francisco in 1969 as an early psych-tech pioneer gets accused of murdering his best friend - who had slipped into the real-life persona of a modern-day Jesus.
SHOOTING ANGELS follows a tough cattleman cop and his son on a wild chase to out-smart the CIA and finally put down the real killer.
Deeply grounded in Ojai valley history, contemporary drama and Chumash mythology, this new John Selby novel exposes four people caught in the multi-dimensional unfolding of a bank robbery, murder mystery, and intense coming-of-age romance. A unique merger of historic and mythic truth, the novel offers a new vision of love, sacrifice and liberation exploding during a fated Easter vacation.
Flura Spark, 20, is brilliant but caught in a nasty marriage. Benny Scope has turned 16 over-steeped in Chumash myths and hungry for sexual fulfillment. Jacko Murrieta, great grandson of the notorious Zorro anti-hero, is pushed to rob a bank to save his mother. And Frank Scope at 48 struggles to find forgiveness and new love. Together they plunge into life-or-death encounters with each other, nature and the law – as they open up to emotional healing and spiritual awakening.
MURRIETA'S LEAP delivers unique fiction revealing both the historic pathos and also the upsurging faith and hope still vibrantly alive in Ojai – where the spirits of Chief Matilija, Juaquin Murrieta and Krishnamurti reach out to the hearts of a new generation.
HIGH HEART / HEART FORCE
a lucid tale of love and discovery
I've been working with this basic set of characters and their remarkable story for almost a decade now. Finally both the first-person (HIGH HEART) and third-person (HEART FORCE) versions are published, plus the audiobook of HIGH HEART, and the screenplay pilots for HEART FORCE.
If you enjoy deep inner insights and a more mythic level of storytelling, start with HIGH HEART. If you prefer third-person cinematic action-adventure, probably HEART FORE is the version to jump into. HIGH HEART reveals the main character's inner experience. HEART FORCE, with a more complex third-person cinematic intertwining of subplots, presents the full external dramatic adventure that's the core of the 7-episode film version. A la nueva!
