Produktbeschreibung
Dani learned much too young that fairy tales do not exist for some kids. With an abusive, alcoholic mother that blames her daughter for her own shortcomings and a father that turns a blind eye in order to maintain his own sanity, Dani's only means of survival is to escape within her mind. After five years of living in hell, Dani finally catches a break. A new family, a new home, and a new life give her the childhood she never had. Just as it seems her life has turned around, fate has other plans. When it all unravels, a teenage Dani sets out on her own. With nothing left, she finds an unlikely hero ready to rescue her from herself and her past. Will Dani be able to put her ghosts to rest or will the past force her to a last resort-revenge? Cat's Eye Marble is a heartbreaking journey showing the power of a child's mind to survive the unspeakable as well as what happens when the walls of defense come crumbling to the ground.
Autorenporträt
Leeann Smith has lived in rural Alabama towns all her life. She is mother to amazing daughters and "Gigi" to a precious granddaughter. Though she enjoys her longtime occupation in the medical field, her true passion has always been writing. In addition to The Precious Not Forgotten, she is also the author of Cat's Eye Marble. The Precious Not Forgotten was inspired by Leeann's paternal grandmother and other family members who suffered from Alzheimer's. As a child, Leeann would sit for hours listening to her grandmother tell stories of her life experiences as well as that of her children and grandchildren. "The older I get, the more I appreciate those times spent listening to my grandmother as well as other elders. Some stories were happy, some sad, but all were enriched with wisdom. I wish I could go back and tell my young self to record as much of it as possible so even though the people are no longer with us, their legacy could continue."
