Stephanie's Stepside

A Novella of Central California

Beschreibung

An 8.0 earthquake almost completely destroyed Interstate 5 in California's Central Valley, heavily damaged the California aqua duct and cracked the holding ponds of a toxic waste facility that released the toxic chemicals, heavy metals, and plastic effluvium, a "witch's brew," that poisoned miles of the most fertile land in the world. Stephanie Grainger's master's project was to study the extent of the poisoning and what methods, if any, might return the land to production. Not long into her research, influence, pressure, and eventually death threats from the conglomerate that owned the toxic waste facility, hound her in her search for the truth. She is forced to flee from the university lab that had become her second home, and armed with her lab and field work studies, endeavors to put the research findings together to save the land, her friends, and herself!

Autor

Lonnie Mair is a retired high school teacher. Over the course of over thirty years in the high school classroom, he taught many subjects, but perhaps the one in which he spent the most time, was in teaching English and composition. After retirement, other responsibilities consumed the years. The characters brought to life in Stephanie's Stepside took on a life of their own and the developing scenario led to the sequel which became Stephanie's Stepside Episode 2: Blood on Toxic Ground, and now Stephanie's Stepside Episode Three: Hope from Toxic Ground.
