Rather, the only recourse left is to gather the facts and evidence, whatever that may be, and draw your own conclusion. As more documentation, artifacts, research technology, and global structural similarities turn up, the number of believers grows. Alien theorist conventions and their attendance are growing as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis brings us to the Stevenson family and this science fiction series thriller, \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eSHATTERED TRUTH\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e It is the journey of three generations told in a series of five books starting with the first book involving ancient alien hunter, Grandad Pete Stevenson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn “Indiana Jones” kind of guy, he spends a small fortune trying to determine a logical outcome between informed speculation and science fiction. He also believes that there are not only aliens among us but evil aliens too. He is a hard-charging, relentless adventurer who often seeks a shady or unlawful means to his expected end. Flawed he is, yes, and a “ready, fire, aim” road warrior who just doesn’t take no for an answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe importance of Pete’s journey is to gain a hold on the facts and data that make the most sense regarding alien existence and present those findings to a worldwide audience. He assembles a small team of similarly wired ancient alien artifact hunters, and they all experience adventures that they had never expected. Adding to the tension and excitement, Pete uncovers a terrorist group through his global travels that have a truly sinister agenda.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis son, Mike, is far more logical and pragmatic. He is not a strong supporter of his dad’s alien escapades, but he truly appreciates Pete’s energy and commitment. Also, Pete and his team of extraterrestrial theorists have uncovered hard evidence of alien existence that is difficult to disprove. Mike takes on some research himself, mostly out of curiosity, and conflict develops between Mike and his wife, Christine, that leads to some bumpy roads. As Mike gathers more evidence of Pete’s conviction, Mike takes on a much more focused role in the alien ventures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMike and Christine have a daughter, Sara, who becomes the risk-taker and problem-solver in the family and the series main character.

The threat of war is high.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe generational family journey into all things alien starts with Pete Stevenson’s cabin in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. While searching the cabin for significant alien artifacts collected by Pete’s associates, Sara and members of her research team come under a serious terrorist attack, which provides the mission catalyst to seek the hidden answers that have been just out of the reach of contemporary scientists and truth-seekers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the cabin attack, Sara experiences both a physical and mental transition and takes on the persona of \u003cstrong\u003eSara Steele\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eWarrior Princess\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Dr. Zinkhan published multiple research articles and presented her research at international conferences to further the medical community’s understanding of growth restriction. Now, she also focuses her time on educating the general public about growth restriction. She started the blog, Tiny But Mighty Baby (www.tinybutmightybaby.com), to provide a resource for families to learn more about growth restriction and stay up-to-date on research advances.

Over the years, I discovered that many people make financial blunders and go broke saving money. They refinance their homes and never pay them off or think they are saving money with lower car payments but longer loans. At the same time, I discovered many people who became extremely wealthy by simply making conscious decisions about how to spend their money, spending less than they earned, and investing their savings. I wrote this book because I wanted a book for my kids that would provide a roadmap for a secure financial future.
