So, you’ve asked what my new novel is about. Well, I’m not going to tell … not exactly. But I thought I’d give you a hint.

 

 

 

Imagine a farm tucked up against the mysterious and beautiful Red River Gorge in Kentucky …

 

 

Imagine simple, uncomplicated lives: Acres of corn ripening in the sun, laundry flapping on the line, a plain tin mailbox stained with a bit of rust. A working farm where stacks of cordwood stand five feet high and dandelions dot the shady front lawn.

 

There is a young boy …

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And his older sister.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They share their dreams in a secret place.

 

The boy dreams of a red-tailed hawk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The girl dreams of old furniture and of one day owning her own shop …

 

They are children. They believe.

 

They grow up.

 

Some of their dreams come true …

 

Some don’t.

 

That is the way life is.

 

But things happen …

 

Remarkable things.

 

And nobody will ever be the same …

 

 

Or will they?
