Hearts of the Lake

Camelot is dust. Arthur is gone. The world remembers only ruins.

Jerome never asked for destiny. He only wanted to survive school in the shadow of broken towers, hiding fear behind jokes. But when he befriends Catherine, the baker’s daughter, and three classmates who are more than they seem, the ground beneath Caerwyn begins to shift.

Whispers rise from the hill where Camelot fell. Lights burn where no fire should. And in Jerome’s palms, a strange warmth flickers—the first spark of a power tied to a prophecy older than kingdoms.

Drawn together by secrets and storms, Jerome, Theo, Mary, and Lela must learn who they are before darkness claims them. Because far beyond the village, an ancient enemy stirs. The Devil has waited centuries for the children of destiny to appear—and he is done waiting.

A tale of friendship, first love, and the heavy price of hope, The Future’s Past weaves the myth of Avalon and Camelot into an unforgettable new saga. Rich with emotion, threaded with danger, and alive with wonder, it is perfect for readers of twelve and up who crave the heart of classic fantasy and the sweep of epic storytelling.
