From childhood, Osa is intrigued by the photograph of her great grandfather that hangs from a wall of her grandmother's home. The man is posed over a fallen obelisk covered with Egyptian hieroglyphs. Over his shoulder are snow capped mountain peaks. Tthe conundrum of the snow covered peaks and the Egyptian monument starts Osa on the research that will lead her to a career in archaeology. She learns the obelisk commemorates one of the greatest of the pharaohs, and no mountain exists in Egypt like the one in the photo. She begins a search for the mountain and the obelisk and if successful will turn Egyptology upside down. She will be betrayed, her career threatened, and her life endangered by religious fanaticism. She will discover the passion of a first love and her own capacity for self sacrifice.

Cot-ton-top - A person with hair so lightly colored so as to be mistaken for white. It's the 1950s, the cold war rages, the 4-H Spooktacular looms, and the piglets are in the garden again. Almost 14 year old John Lawrence "Cottontop" has been sent to live with his uncle and aunt after the death of his father. Here on the farm, he slops pigs, milks cows, goes fishing when it rains, and every month learns the words from the Reader's Digest "How To Increase Your Word Power."In this heartwarming tale Cottontop searches for truth at a time when truth has become uncertain. He is aided in his quest by kindly Uncle George, Ann his schoolmarm aunt, Smitty the dock-guy, Earnest who must not laugh while driving, crabby Uncle Andrew, and Wanda, who is perhaps something more than just a friend.Sprinkled with homespun wisdom, plenty of Midwestern humor, and nostalgia for rural life in the 50's, "Cottontop" is a coming of age story that artfully celebrates the innocence of youth.
