Dylan Mason has the reputation of a troublemaker within the North American Spaceforce, and after he causes a nearly fatal crash, he expects to be expelled from the force. But Commissioner Hunter, head of the Spaceforce, decides to give him one more chance and appoints him as captain of the starcruiser Infinity. Though less than pleased with his copilot, the sour and sarcastic Carl Regsdale, Dylan is sure he can make good with the ship and prove himself to the commissioner.However, his first mission, a routine flight to Mars, proves to be less than routine. A strange phenomena called the Green Fire is terrorizing the planet, and Dylan finds himself accused of playing a part in causing it. Now, Dylan must somehow clear his name and prove who is really responsible for the fire--with the help of his co-pilot, his young crewman, Aaron Carpenter, and Ted Brownlow, an interplanetary evangelist with a quirky sense of humor.

Our story takes place in the small village of Dragon Point, Maine, population 3,283, which doesn't include Mr. Nichols’ dog, Shakespeare or Tati's black cat, Whisper. You are probably wondering where the name "Dragon Point" came from. Well, there is a beautiful rock formation that sits high above the town, which is unmistakably in the shape of a dragon, thus, the name, "Dragon Point." It is a picturesque location that attracts tourists from all over the world. They come to Dragon Point to enjoy the rugged coastline, the excellent cuisine, and to explore the tiny shops that line Main Street. There are a number of fancy boutiques and an unusual number of antique shops. Now, this is where it gets interesting, you see. The antique shops are filled with the most unique, strange, and hard to find antiquities. They contain bits of the past and mysteries of the future, and their proprietors are well versed on the oddest of subjects. Yes, Dragon Point is quite an interesting place for many reasons that you will soon understand. It is the summer of 2009, a summer no different from any other summer in the small coastal town or at least not for the moment. Of particular interest is a small group of children who call themselves, “The Fearless Five.” You are probably wondering how they got their name. Let me just say that they love an adventure, they love a mystery, and they love exploring the unspoken secrets that exist in this small quiet village. Although, there are some who would say that their mischievous ways just always seem to get them into some sort of trouble. I will let you be the judge of that. This quaint coastal village is steeped in history. The old homes and shops are built on land that was once inhabited by sea captains, Native Americans and maybe even a pirate or two. So, one could understand that there could very well be a spirit lingering here and there. And, yes, you are right, there are probably even hidden passageways in the old historical homes, unexplored caves along the coast, and things that would intrigue and capture the attention and the imaginations of The Fearless Five. The Fearless Five is made up of Penelope Star of course; everyone calls her Penny. Dolphine Bias, who is Penny’s best friend; everyone calls her Dolly. Then there is, Billy Long, Ben Eagle, and Eddie Callahan; yes, five all together. Five children whose names sound ordinary enough but believe me they are not ordinary children by any means, nor are their adventures. Somehow and for some cosmic reason their paths were meant to cross. Call it destiny or fate that brought them together at this point in time, in this small village of Dragon Point, Maine.As I said, everything seems quite normal but then again it always does. That is until the adventure begins… the mystery of the three dragons…
