Psalm 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his seasl his liaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
As I discussed last post, losing a loved one is traumatic. Cancer
is devastating. But what if the loss was a result of murder, and you were also
meant to die?
My first major in college was journalism. So, I combined the two
for a story.
Not having seen each other in sixteen years, sparks fly immediately when April Chastain misrepresents herself and returns to her hometown of Magnolia Blossom, Mississippi, to work for Russell Dalton, a man she has adored since childhood. They find themselves caught up in a web of romance, mystery, and danger.
Left for dead at the age of six, April was miraculously spared by a man-size teddy bear, a gift for Russell. As clues about the murder of April's parents trickle to light, evidence surfaces that points to trusted friends as possible murderers. Several death and a high number of cancer patients are linked to suspected illegal dumping of toxic, water-soluble cadmium.
Through it all, the one constant is an inanimate teddy bear, which holds a secret. The world of investigative reporting proves to be a roller coaster of intrigue, secrets, and tumultuous relationships in Wilted Magnolias.
Cover by Christopher Chambers.
