Following that came ''Summer of the Mad Monk'', a story set in 1932 during the Dust Bowl. Her fourth and most popular novel to date is ''On the Wings of a Dragon''. A sequel was released but did not gain as much popularity as the first. Following that was ''Out on the Prairie'', ''The Deadly Dance'', and then the ''Ghost Voyages'' series. The latest ''Ghost Voyages'' Book (Part IV) was released on May 3, 2008. The main character in the Ghost Voyages series has the same name of Taylor's first grandson, Jeremy Belly.
