From USA Today bestselling author D.F. Jones, “Twisting Time: Forbidden City of Gold” is a riveting fantasy novel that seamlessly blends cosmic love, myths and legends, and divine intervention with high-stakes adventure. At its heart lies the Supreme Creator’s deep-seated desire to create unity with his divine family and humanity.

When the heavenly council member Soal, representing the Holy Trifecta, amplifies their network of warriors across the universe, an unsuspecting group of college students finds themselves invited into a secret society. The secret society offers them the allure of powers and the answers to some of life’s enigmatic questions. This leads to four students - Blaine, Josephine, George, and Rose - being thrust into the midst of an ancient conflict. Trained and guided by seasoned angel warriors, their mission is to retrieve a sacred amulet and deliver it back to the Almighty.

Their quest, however, isn’t straightforward. They must journey into the mythical Forbidden City of Gold, abandoned and sealed since the infamous Tower of Babel rebellion. Here, they encounter portal doors that can lead to the past, and the ultimate door leads to the Supreme Creator - each choice may determine not only their personal fate but the fate of humanity itself, and an incorrect choice could trap them in another time and place. Failure is simply not an option.

Parallel to this runs the sinister plot of Persephone, a lesser god. She yearns for the same sacred amulet and its power to rewrite history, free herself from an unwanted marriage to Hades, and allow the lesser gods to continue their rule over Earth.

Twisting Time: Forbidden City of Gold spirals towards a climactic clash between the divine hierarchy, humanity, and the lesser gods. The world’s fate hangs in the balance in this heart-pounding, emotion-imbued fantasy thriller between good and evil.
