Under the Tracks

Beschreibung

A ghost story, inspired by true events. On her tenth birthday, Gwen sees what she believes is a lost boy in the forest below an old Victorian house - a child desperate for help. When the search comes up empty, and no child was ever reported missing, her parents and the authorities think it is just her imagination. Four years later, in the summer of 1982, she embarks upon a quest to find the answer to her only question: did she see a ghost? Gwen convinces five of her friends to join her for an adventurous day hiking up the forested hillside to explore the abandoned house. One day to try to solve the mystery, and prove to everyone she'd told the truth. The day of youthful abandon tests the strength of their resolve, when what they encounter, within the crumbling walls, is more than they could have imagined. Their shocking discovery changes their perceptions of reality, the course of their relationships, and darkens the history of their sleepy town of Douglas forever.

Autor

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 musical project, which is how I met my husband. Together we formed the band, Saratoga Park, and recorded a couple CD's. Music is in my blood, as both my parents are musicians and singer/songwriters.After raising two boys, while working long hard hours for years outside the home, and trying to balance it all without losing my mind, I was able to get out of the rat race and work from home.For the last decade I have also been knee deep in genealogical research. At first it was just due to curiosity of my father's family, but then it became a calling after my maternal grandmother passed. It was because of this passionate endeavor that I discovered a family trauma that really touched me.This is what inspired me to write the novel "Under the Tracks".By coming full circle in my life, I have found the path back to my attic of imagination and can, at last, let loose my hibernating creative creatures into the world.
