Her first novel Alanya to Alanya was released in June 2005. First in a series of five books dubbed the Marq'ssan Cycle, Alanya to Alanya is set on a near-future earth controlled by a male-dominated ruling class patterned loosely after the corporate world of today. The Marq'ssan, an advanced race of aliens, bring business as usual to a screeching halt all over the world by disabling technology and aiding groups willing to fight for independence from the power structure. The main character is Kay Zeldin, a history professor who has a history of working for the government. But as she works for the government she becomes more and more convinced to follow the Marq'ssans.
