THE TRIPLE GODDESS is a novel, in three parts, about an obsession with the idea of one woman-- presented in a context of Fairy Tale; each part 'starring' a different woman, who is the same person: the Triple Goddess of classical mythology made flesh. Three mysterious drop-dead gorgeous females, whose original was lost to reality... like Orpheus's Eurydice, or Dante's Beatrice... but not lost to the imagination; which is what keeps her alive upon the page, for whomever wishes to possess her. Part One, OPHELIA, is Arcadian fantasy, a battle against evil in an English village; Part Two, ARBELLA, is historical fiction, the past rediscovered in the present; Part Three, GLORIA, is science fiction, a terrifying vision of the future, as the end of the world approaches. Arbella Stace is a drop-dead gorgeous, aimless, bored, twenty-one year old, a descendant of Arbella Stuart, cousin to Mary Queen of Scots, who lives alone on the top floor of her father's Eaton Square mansion. Arbella is drawn into an Elizabethan historical drama at the Tower of London, the former Royal Palace, and reconnecting with an unconsummated love affair, between her namesake, Arbella Stuart, and Wat Ralegh, the elder son of Sir Walter Ralegh, the Elizabethan knight, soldier, adventurer, explorer, poet, and historian. Arbella Stuart was imprisoned at the Tower of London, at the same time as Sir Walter Ralegh: a cause that Ralegh supported. Sir Walter Ralegh is still occupying his apartment in the Bloody tower, owing to the immunity to mortality, which he acquired from ingesting his own Great Cordial, or Elixir, of eternal life....
