OVERVIEW: MAYHEM TRILOGY

MAYHEM SERIES DESCRIPTION

The Mayhem paranormal future mystery series explores an epochal period in human history, of the people and their environment in the troubled United Westican Territories—aka the UWT—or just Westica. 

During the course of three pivotal decades in the latter half of the twenty-second century, Westica has evolved from Old America—coast to coast and tundra to cape. 

Through the course of this epic set in an all-too-believable future, the Westican people struggle against apocalyptic odds from centuries of bad decisions. Ultimately, this is a story of uplifting redemption. The indomitable human spirit prevails, but in unexpected ways.
