Evil now has a face as Police Lieutenant Alan Crane and his supernatural counterpart, Michael Simmons, return in the third and final installment of The Light Bringer Trilogy. Together, Crane and Simmons slowly learn of the existence of the one who represents the darkness here on earth. As they continue to track their adversary they begin to uncover his long reign of terror, which courses through history and sets forth a plan to poison the hearts and souls of mankind in preparation for the final battle between good and evil. Who will win? Find out in The Risen.
In the first book of this award-winning series, Lt. Crane came face to face with the mystery of life and death as sixteen people would die on his watch. Although tragic and untimely death is no stranger to the jaded ex-Marine, his new-found supernatural ability to lead people to their spiritual fates is a whole new experience. In the second book, The Fallen, Lt. Crane's sensational journey continues as he searches for answers that will unlock the mystery of the darkness that is infiltrating the world of the living. But, we live in a time of increasing darkness―unending war, economic strife, and untimely death―and when bad things happen to good people, we often ask "Why?" This fascinating trilogy will engage every imagination and spirit while it answers this most provocative question.

Chapter 1
Police lieutenant Alan Crane sat back in his seat and closed his eyes as he felt the plane lifting off the ground. He hated to fly. A horrible fear of heights had always plagued him, and the sensation of freefall, however slight, made him anxious. After a moment or two, when the aircraft had leveled out, he opened his eyes. His mind wandered back to the strange phone call he had received yesterday, from Commander Tong Montri, an old friend he'd met in the FBI National Academy who worked for the Royal Thai Police in one of its provincial divisions.
It had been many years since Alan had spoken to him, and Tong's voice was now serious with concern as he said, in thickly accented English, 'Alan, I have a most disturbing case that I need your help on. I can't relay too much over the phone, but I've cleared it with your department to have you come immediately.'
'Can you tell me anything?' asked Alan.
'We've had a mass suicide, similar to the one you recently worked on. I fear that they may be related, but that's all I can say over the phone. I'll see you when you get here.'
Alan recalled the incident that Tong had referred to. As part of the Major Case Squad, he was often sent to investigate high-profile events. This particular case involved a small church where all eighty members of the congregation had been found dead. The minister, Reverend Dean Clampson, was missing, although he was supposed to conduct the service that day. The toxicology reports indicated that everyone had ingested some type of toxin, which was discovered in the wine used for Sunday services.
Alan was assigned as the lead investigator, and he quickly discovered that it was not a mass suicide. He spoke to those who had died, once they had passed on to the next realm―an ability and assignment he'd been given years ago by a mysterious man named Michael Simmons, who posed as a federal agent. Simmons had introduced Alan to the world beyond life on Earth and had taught him how to walk the souls of those who had passed from that life through the long hallways that eventually led to the Realm of Light, as Simmons called it.
Alan had walked all eighty members of the congregation to their final resting place―or Heaven, as Alan liked to call it. The deceased members of the church told him that they had not taken their own lives by ingesting poison but had simply participated as usual in the regular Sunday church service―which included partaking of the Sunday wine. Alan was still leaning toward the theory that Reverend Clampson had murdered them all and then subsequently been led to the Darkness by someone else. His inability to find the entire truth was troubling to him, but now, as he contemplated the similar incident in Thailand, he was becoming more convinced that those dedicated to the Darkness might be involved.
The plane lurched, and the turbulence brought Alan back to the present. His chest tightened with fear for a brief moment, then his fear dissipated. He felt the aircraft bank to the right and descend, and he wondered what was going on. They had been flying for only five minutes, yet it seemed as if they were making an approach to land. Alan glanced out the window and noticed the clouds rush by, then disappear above him. He glanced downward and could see the outline of a huge city below. The captain's voice came over the intercom, 'We're beginning our final approach at Bangkok International Airport. Please fasten your seat belts and place your trays in the upright position as we prepare to land.'
Alan was startled, but as he looked around at the other passengers, he saw that they seemed undisturbed about the five-minute flight from the United States to Thailand. The plane touched down, and Alan grabbed his bag from the overhead compartment. As he made his way off the plane, he passed by the cockpit, and his gaze focused on the captain, who was standing near the doorway and staring at him with a huge smile on his face. At that moment Alan realized why the flight had taken only five minutes: he was looking at the familiar face of Michael Simmons.
Chapter 2
Alan walked from the tunnel that led off the plane and looked around at the droves of people scrambling to make their way through the crowded airport. A hand reached out and touched him on the shoulder, and he turned to see Michael Simmons, who was now wearing his typical dark-colored suit rather than the captain's uniform he had been sporting just minutes ago.
'I'd ask you how you changed so fast,' Alan commented, 'but then again, perhaps I don't want to know. So are you with the airline or the FBI right now?'
Michael smiled. 'You know I'm with neither.'
'I mean,' Alan lowered his voice to a whisper, 'how shall I introduce you―as Captain Simmons or Special Agent Simmons?'
'Ah, Special Agent Simmons will do. So how is your new apprentice?' Simmons asked.
'You mean Curtis?' Alan clarified. Curtis Norman was a new police officer with the Riverston Police Department, Alan's agency. Curtis was fresh out of the academy, but Simmons and Alan had known him before his law enforcement endeavors because Curtis had been captured by the Darkness only one year ago. Both had rescued Curtis and were now training him to follow in their footsteps and lead those who pass on to the world beyond the living.
'Yes, Curtis,' Simmons replied. 'I always liked that young man. He has good values.'
Alan nodded in agreement. 'He's doing well, and I finally allowed him to conduct his first walk alone. It was a simple case, an elderly woman who had been widowed years before. She led a life of charity and devotion, and her walk to the Light must have been quick and unhindered by obstacles. Curtis will call me if anything dramatic happens back home.'
'That's great,' Simmons stated.
A sense of pride filled Alan's mind as he thought of young Curtis and how fast he was progressing to taking his position as a Light Bringer. As his thoughts turned back to the matter at hand, his expression changed, causing his mouth to droop in a frown. 'You know about the eighty people I walked to the Light?' he asked. 'The ones who were poisoned?'
'Yes,' replied Simmons as his brow furrowed in concern. 'Very disturbing.'
'Then you also know that they told me they hadn't committed suicide,' Alan continued. 'In addition, I couldn't locate the minister of the church, Reverend Clampson. I'm guessing he murdered the others and was led to the Darkness. But why would he kill all those people?'
Simmons shook his head. 'Do you know anything else about Clampson?'
'According to those who had passed on, he was a wonderful man. None of them suspect that he had anything to do with it, but still, if he hadn't, he'd most likely be dead like the others, and I would have walked him to the Light.'
Alan looked over at Simmons, wanting confirmation of this theory. The two had stopped walking, and Simmons was deep in thought. After a moment, Alan prodded him for his opinion once more. 'That is correct, isn't it? If Clampson died and I didn't lead him to the Light, then the probability is that someone led him to the Darkness.'
Simmons nodded his head slowly. 'That has always been how it was; however, things haven't been following the same rules that I've always known.'
'What do you mean?'
'Recently there have been some rare occasions when significantly good people have died and disappeared. They were destined to be walked into the Light, but they weren't.'
A surge of curiosity mixed with fear welled up in Alan's gut. 'How?'
'I don't know.'
Alan drew a deep breath, then hoisted the strap of his laptop bag over his shoulder to give his hand a rest. 'You know I'm here to meet an old friend of mine from the FBI National Academy. He has a similar incident involving what appears to be a mass suicide.'
Simmons nodded as if he already knew this. 'Yes, I'm trying to follow these cases. Strange things are happening ever since the Darkness has reclaimed its leaders and the Sistratos has started.'
The Darkness reclaiming its leaders, Alan thought, and he knew what Simmons was referring to. Just last year, both of them had witnessed a massive jailbreak of sorts, in which those from the Darkness had freed many of the once-captured fallen angels, as Alan called them. Alan could recall the massive vaultlike prison where millions of them were kept in tiny jars and containers, since they were reduced to mere dust while residing in the Realm of Light. He also remembered how those from his world who were dedicated to the Darkness had flung the containers into a dark void that had appeared in the prison, thus freeing the Fallen.
'What has started?' Alan finally said as he tried to push the images of the jailbreak out of his mind.
'The Sistratos,' replied Simmons. 'It means the 'Binding' in the divine language.'
Alan knew from his many walks through the hallways that the divine language was spoken in the world beyond life on Earth. It was universal, and everyone could understand one another. 'I'm not familiar with the Binding.'
Simmons lowered his voice to ensure that the many people around them at the airport weren't listening. 'It's an event in which the two worlds are bound in a simultaneous battle.'
'The two worlds?' Alan whispered back, looking utterly confused.
'Yes, the world of the living and the realms beyond life.'
Alan was about to continue this conversation when he saw a tall, dark-skinned Asian man approach him and say, with a heavy accent, 'Alan, so good to see you.'
Alan smiled at Tong, who hugged him―obviously a more accepted greeting between men here than in the United States. 'How are you, Tong?'
'Not bad. Who is your friend?'
'Special Agent Michael Simmons with the FBI,' Simmons answered before Alan could, extending his hand.
'Glad you are both here. We have much to talk about,' said Tong. The corners of his mouth drooped, and Alan could tell he was troubled.
'Things have been rough back home for us, too,' offered Alan.
'It is difficult times we live in,' agreed Tong. 'Difficult times indeed.'
