In the sleepy town of Douglas, Oregon, there is a dark past. One that fourteen year old Gwen Evans and her friends are unaware of. So when they set out, in the summer of 1982, on an adventure to find a ghost in the forest, they were ill prepared. What they discover, and what they encounter, altered their perception of reality forever. But for Gwen, that day was more than just uncovering terrifying secrets hidden in the depths of an abandoned Victorian House, or the encountering of supernatural forces, it was the discovery of psychic powers within herself. That fall, when school starts, she and her friends hope they can put that summer day behind them. Unfortunately, in their attempts to close one door, they inadvertently open another. When they start preparing to return to the house and set things right, they uncover another secret about the town. This leads them down a surprising path to a new ally who helps ready them for the battle that lay ahead. Who knew being a freshman in high school would be so hard?
Autorenporträt
I have been writing creatively since I was a teenager, always wanting to be a novelist. I attended San Diego State University with a major in Comparative Literature. My penchant for poetry segued into becoming a lyricist and singer in a band called, Saratoga Park. We recorded a couple of CD's over the years.Fast forward through jobs and raising a family to this last decade where I found myself knee deep in genealogical research. At first it was due to curiosity about my father's family, then it became a calling after my maternal grandmother passed. This passionate endeavor led me to the discovery of a family trauma that really touched me. It is what inspired me to write the first novel, "Under the Tracks", in The Douglas Town Chronicles.Now it seems I've come full circle in my life, and found the path back to my attic of imagination filled with creative creatures who are more than happy to come out to play.
