"Laura come with me," said Israfel, "if you are not happy, I will bring you back!" Laura, an American rancher who raises horses in rural BC with her musician husband, Jesse lead a rather quiet life. One day while out riding her horse in the wilderness, she discovers a crash landing of some sort of aircraft that is not of this earth, bearing three passengers that are equally mysterious and otherworldly. The decisions she makes within the next few moments become life altering. Laura promises to help them heal from their injuries, stay hidden from government authorities, and return to their people. So begins a long adventure full of secrets, military investigations, and betrayals. Israfel is a science fiction romance set in the beautiful British Columbia interior that is perfect for Canadian and American readers who are interested in soft science fiction with a slow-burn romance.
