Here’s the set-up: Fourteen year-old Peter Miller and his best friend Mike DeSorcier begin the summer on a mission to capture a baseball championship but soon uncover a group of extra-dimensional beings infiltrating their league. During their breathless escape, the boys discover two things: they are in mountains of trouble and they need help. Assistance (and more trouble) arrives in the form of two daring and mystifying girls - the unusual Karen Croft and the mystifying Jo Munro.

Together, the teens must solve the mystery of the Noqumiut before a fateful August lunar eclipse. Unlikely allies aid their efforts: an Eskimo shaman, a magic stone carving of a lively seal, a ferociously loyal dog, and an opponent from Roswell, New Mexico whose talents (and origins) may literally be out of this world.

The Summer Set is a humorous, intense and action-packed story about friends, enemies and the pursuit of winning it all.


The Story's Origins: I had a dream about a carved Eskimo seal called 'The Seal of Approval'. The dream stayed with me and I integrated the seal with other dreams and musings stimulated by reading parapsychologist John Keel's The Mothman Prophecies.

Over a two year period a nostalgic tale of greed, spirituality and friendship evolved. A raft of mysterious paranormal occurrences gradually provokes the teens to join forces and confront the growing threat of a group of deadly extra-dimensional beings.

The Summer Set: is primarily a coming-of-age tale of friendship and affection between two boys and two girls. The story is set in 1956 Eisenhower America with its backdrop of McCarthyism and corporate conformity.

Though geared to mature young adults ages 11-17, the nostalgic and 'clean' novel is an interesting and fun read for all adults ages 18-68.

Boys love it! Peter and Mike are real boys. Their intense and often comical relationship often produces snickers of fun and laugh-out-loud incredulous hilarity.
