About this eBook

A strange object is discovered on the ice during the annual Antarctic Search for Meteorites. On the same expedition, a couple falls in love and a child is conceived, an extraordinarily intelligent child, a scientific prodigy named Fiona. From an early age, there are things Fiona knows for which she has no reason of knowing. Random confluence of events or a carefully planned experiment? That is the question. But one thing is clear: Fiona is being watched. The supersecret organization known as the Channel has plans to exploit her special gifts. And then, there are the Others... The Realm of Misplaced Hearts will lead you into that zone where the eyes of the world and the eyes of the mind are joined by the eyes of the spirit and where love and compassion are pitted against greed and, above all, the thirst for power. At all costs, Fiona must be protected. The future of the world is at stake.

About the author

Rick Hobbs lives in Maine. He is a family physician and medical acupuncturist who practices and teaches a holistic style of medicine. For him, the mind-body-spirit connection is more than a cliché. It is real and plays a major role in both healing and wellness. Rick also has a penchant for hard science and spent his younger days studying physics at Georgia Tech. As a graduate student, he learned that physics can only take you so far. There are things that are seemingly unknowable. Yet throughout the history of science there have been rare individuals capable of reaching beyond physics, to fathom the depths of reality. One might call it “seeing through the eyes of the spirit.” In his first novel, Entangled Realms, Rick began a journey into that zone where science intersects with the realm of the spirit—a realm where good and evil battle over the power of knowledge. The Realm of Misplaced Hearts continues that sojourn, uniting a new cast of characters with the old.
