When the rising ocean, in the year 2086, engulfs the last vestiges of the Jamestown Visitors Center and drowns its manager, his wife, Margrethe Bernard takes her children away from the threatening sea and memories that haunt her and moves inland to temporarily live in a tent city of migrants. There, the source of her nightmares returns to threaten her. As the tent city moves south for the winter, she abandons the other migrants to try to escape her past, but in a raging hurricane, the past finds her. In the turmoil that follows, nature intervenes to destroy her pursuer, and she finds love, hope, and redemption.

In 2087, coastal flooding and extreme changes in the weather have turned the United States into a nation of migrants and tent cities. In this environment, three family groups struggle with their plights and their dreams for the future. They come together from different parts of the nation when they hire illegal traffickers to take them across the border with Canada where they will live as illegal immigrants. Crossing is not an easy task because Canada has established a border wall, both physical and electronic. The wall is constantly patrolled by low-flying drones and satellites. The traffickers take them to a crossing point in remote parts of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation in Montana from which they will attempt their crossing. In making the crossing, some are successful, and some are not, but even for those who succeed, life is not what they had hoped it to be.

Three government scientists go rogue and run an experiment designed to reduce the gestation period of the human race. The experiment goes terribly wrong and results in two babies being murdered. A young woman reporter investigates the crime to help unravel the mystery of all that happened while the youngest of the three scientists, innocent of the murders, is embroiled in the turmoil that ensues. The tragedy comes to the attention of the local congressman and results in a congressional hearing to find out why government oversight failed during the events of the experiment and its aftermath.

Della B's Bleu Glo is a novel based on the nature of a national, and even a world, population that succumbs to the siren's leadership of celebrities, emulating fads that homogenize lives and sometimes have psychological or physical impacts on those who are disciples. In this case, a low-level scientist accidentally discovers a material that can serve as a dye that luminesces. He and his wife dream of avoiding his commitments to the company for which he works and making a fortune off the dye. The wife grows frustrated with the slow progress and misdirections of her husband as he develops the dye and seeks her fortune by divorcing her husband and marrying the son of the owners of the company her husband worked for. When the ex-husband achieves success, she backstabs him and reveals that he discovered the dye during company time. In the resulting suit, the company takes over the patent for the dye and, under the sponsorship of a noted hip-hop singer, launches a line of glowing blue cosmetics that becomes a worldwide fad.Continuing his research on the dye, the scientist discovers that the dye has a half-life, with its molecules gradually attaching themselves to organic compounds as it reconfigures itself and loses its ability to glow. Since skin is organic, he realizes that the cosmetics are attaching themselves to human beings and doing damage. With lasers, he develops a way to correct this damage and opens a clinic to correct the problem, only then revealing what is happening to people throughout the world.Under this overarching story are subplots of a marriage to an ambitious woman who is beautiful beyond the dreams of her husband, whose ambition leads to the murder of a scientist who might interfere with her becoming wealthy from her husband's discovery, of the murder of a fellow worker who rapes her to keep him from ruining her life, of her attempt to disrupt her ex-husband's later success by trying to involve him in one of the murders, and of the accidental discovery of the wrong body that leads to her arrest.Underlying the story are the moral questions of adequate cosmetic testing and of the responsibility of an individual to warn the public of a danger when he knows it, especially when he is delaying notification while he develops a way to correct the danger and make a personal fortune.
