Product Description
On her college graduation day, twenty-two year old Anne Davis finds out she's being sued for $300,000.00. Stunned, Anne turns to her mother, Cat, for answers. Cat's silence confirms Anne's worst fears--her mother is somehow involved. Devastated, Anne decides she has to get away from Lake Winnemuc, fast. Taking her cue from a vivid spiritual dream, she packs her bags and treks to Southern California. There she takes a job at Mantra, a metaphysical bookstore, and falls under the wing of Moonbeam, a Wiccan high priestess and tarot reader. Looking for answers to her mothers betrayal, Anne delves deep into the occult, enthralled with the mysteries of the paranormal and the promise of new age mysticism. Aiding her in her journey are Wolfe, a hunky surfer-dude and shaman wannabe; landlord Dr. Reubin Rabinowitz, an aging hippie with a love of drumming circles and pot and his voodoo practicing ex-wife, Olufemi. But when world famous channeler Fran Baker enters the scene, Anne's world is turned upside down as inner and outer worlds collide. With Wolfe by her side, Anne's confusion deepens as she fights her attraction to the tanned airhead. Together they go on a journey that involves lies, manipulation, and alien possession. It's Bridget Jones meets Out on a Limb as dimensions shift, cultures clash and personalities collide in this fast-paced, fun-filled novel of adventure, romance and high meditation.
(previously known as False Prophets, Tramps & Thieves)

The Wacky World of New Age July 23, 2004
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
What a fun book, I laughed throughout this book as I could relate to so many of Anne's personal experiences. Her journey as a naive young girl into the realm of the New Age Movement brought back many memories of my own trek through this world. Anne explores magic, tarot, channeling, drumming, spirit guides, animal guides, drugs, conspiracy theories, spiritual gurus, sacred sites and just about anything you can imagine "new age". I found myself laughing numerous times as I remembered my own spiritual dramas. I recommend this book for everyone searching for understanding within the New Age community.
Fun, fast-paced, page-turner!! June 12, 2004

I was really drawn in by this book. I loved Anne's adventure and the nuts she meets and gets involved with. Dr. Reubin and his drumming circles was a hoot! It was fun to follow Anne on her journey trying to figure out what happened at Midhaven, while she does her best to improve her spiritual foundation. But, she's like a lot of us, putting all her faith in what sounds and looks good only to find out that she's been duped. I loved the Sedona trip and Wolfe's airhead philosophy. All in all a good time!
Enjoyable from 1st Page til Last! June 8, 2004

I loved this book! Kooky Anne Davis had me in stitches as she struggles to deal with an insidious lawsuit, a mother that seems to hate her, and off-the-wall new agers. When she aligns herself with channeler Fran Baker, it looks like everything will turn out alright--but that wouldn't be much fun would it? Anne, along with adorable surfer-dude Wolfe, go head-to-head with worldly and other worldly forces, get scratched and bruised along the way, but come out all the better for it. Can't wait for the next adventure!
Fun, wild ride! June 7, 2004

Wow, what a fun book! I really enjoyed Anne's antics as she feverishly tries to figure out how to handle a devastating lawsuit that she suspects has something to do with her scheming mother. As she searches for answers with her new cohorts in the new age community, she finds comfort under the wing of channeler Fran Baker. Fran seems to be the answer to all of Anne's problems....
I really liked Anne's relationship with surfer hunk Wolfe and the bizarre Dr. Reubin. Through it all, Anne rises to her challenges.This book left me wanting more. Anne is such a screwball and the people she gets involved with are so looney that you have to sit back and enjoy the ride. First rate entertainment!
A Fun and Refreshing Read !! February 12, 2004

This book was such a fun read. Even if you are not involved in metaphysics there is much to be enjoyed here. More than once I laughed until I cried. I found the characters very believable and the situations (for those of us involved in metaphysics) to be realistic. Although this book is fun, there are also object lessons not unlike those we have all experienced in our own lives. I really like Anne. She is a delightful character who has embarked on an adventure beyond her wildest imaginings and whose life will never be the same again. To relate to her and her situations was very easy. Go with the flow, follow intuition and know that all the right people will be in the right place at the right time, even if it doesn't seem like it at first. For those who are interested in reading a lighthearted metaphysical journey I strongly recommend this book.
