Conrad Ambrose is more than meets the eye. Handsome and brilliant, his good looks and ambition help hide a secret, his family's bloodline. The ancestral power and protection of the Ambrose Eternal's amazing psychic gifts allow him to confront the family's ancient enemies but the price could be his innocence, or even his life.

Sons of the Ambrose is the story of a gifted and wealthy family that traces its ancestors and affluence back to the time of Julius Caesar's rise to power. Cyriacus and heirs that follow must use their wits to protect the family and its growing wealth from those who would destroy them. The family's empathic gifts and practice of living quietly and modestly help protect them until the mid-1800s. Gilland and William Ambrose sever ties with business partner Jacamello Grossini because of Grossini's theft from their mining partnership. Grossini's vow of revenge for being cut out of fabulous profits from the platinum mines follows the family into modern times. The Ambrose, always watchful before, are now in greater danger and become more reclusive after many of the male heirs in the family are murdered. Years of quiet living bring the family safely into the 20th century. Then dangers increase when young Conrad Ambrose publishes a novel, not realizing the story is really the history of his family. Outed by the success of the book, Conrad must escape kidnappers and learn the ropes of managing the family business he inherits. His growing maturity opens the door for others in the Ambrose family, like the teenager Jackson Van Keele, to help secure the family's future.
