When the Goddess Returns to Eden introduces two interdimensional and universal entities who are enemies and in pursuit of each other through space-time. The setting of their at present encounter is a fictional small town and county in south central Kentucky. There the antagonist, Turner Ashton, infiltrates a local drug cartel who is plotting the death of the protagonist, Rhea Michaels, an educator. She is encouraged by an elderly friend to make contact with the county attorney, Max Hastings, who is also a main character threatened by the cartel. The plot weaves the fictionalized main characters and supporting cast in a web of crime, torture, mayhem, and murder. The connecting element of the initial book and subsequent releases is a professor, Bradford Wainwright, who has received the manuscript from an unknown source with the directive to be read by him alone with the promise a future manuscript will identify him as the author. Once Wainwright finishes reading the initial manuscript and he is speaking to his agent, the second book arrives.
