Patriot Children

God gave sanctuaries unto mankind - holy, sacred, and undefiled places; consecrated and set apart for the purpose of respectful and reverential spiritual union and worship. It makes no difference whether they be out of doors under the open sky - or man-made edifices; constructed exclusively for this purpose. It is a sad state of affairs when a society becomes so warped, deranged, and unbalanced - that hardened criminals, blatant lawbreakers, illegal aliens, war-faring insurgents, corrupt political malefactors, radical reprobates, traitors, demon worshipers, and all other conspirators against God and humanity are welcomed - unchecked and unrestrained - into their midst. We invite you to follow the impact which these circumstances made in the lives of the PATRIOT CHILDREN - leaving the homestead, farm, and estate which, from the time of the 1849 California gold rush, had been handed down through many generations - in the quest of pursuing a sounder, safer future in rural America's mid-south. The PATRIOT CHILDREN, while traveling from California to Arkansas, interact with others in such a manner as to re-inspire a hope in the American Dream. During this journey they heard thrumming drumbeats and caught glimpses of a helicopter passing back and forth overhead. The PATRIOT CHILDREN had no idea whatsoever that this one little helicopter could make an impact, which would change the course of their lives forever. Explore a hacienda with strange, hidden secrets. The youth sleuth, William Patriot, tries to delve into the past to uncover and solve the mysteries associated with this old house. Going far back in time, the insignificant, dinosaur-dominated planet, Earth, wandered too close to the Argolexis asteroid belt and a random sedimentary-volcanic-rock smashed into it - leaving an everlasting impression - and Chicken Little exclaimed, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" Numerous millennia after the advent of man-kind, someone in the Ozark Plateau 'discovered' the often restructured - and much more diminutive - asteroid crater and mistakenly called it a sinkhole. The once gargantuan depression in the earth was destined to retain that enigmatic title - and its unwelcome, dark, and sinister secret - through the passage of many generations. Eventually, the shocking truth regarding Sharkomions from Argolexis would become self-evident.
