"To say that this novel is sheer, literary brilliance is an
understatement. This book will not let you down, nor will you
be able to put it down." -eNovel Reviews . An emotional read that tests the strength of one's own
ability to deal with a parent's worst nightmare. Nine years ago, Molly Tanner witnessed a young girl's
abduction in the busy city of Philadelphia, shifting her
occasional clairvoyance into overdrive. Two days later, the
girl's body was found, and Molly's life fell apart. Consumed by
guilt for not acting upon her visions, and on the brink of
losing her family, Molly escaped the torturous reminders in the
city, fleeing to the safety of the close-knit rural community
of Boyds, Maryland. Molly's life is back on track, her son has begun college,
and she and her husband have finally rekindled their
relationship. Their fresh start is shattered when a
seven-year-old girl disappears from a local park near Molly's
home. Unable to turn her back on another child and troubled by
memories of the past, Molly sets out to find her, jeopardizing
the marriage she'd fought so hard to hold together. While
unearthing clues and struggling to decipher her visions, Molly
discovers another side of Boyds, where the residents--and the
land itself--hold potentially lethal secrets, and exposes
another side of her husband, one that threatens to tear them
apart.

Readers Favorite 5 STARS I began writing
Chasing Amanda in 2006, set it down to write Megan's Way in
2008, and revisited it in 2009 with even more subplots in mind.
The idea came to me while running solo down White Ground Road,
which is mentioned in the novel. Much of the landscape and
architecture mentioned in the book is true to Boyds, and is
just as foreboding in the dark of night as it is portrayed
in Chasing Amanda.
Boyds, however, is not a town where any of these events
have taken place, nor are the people likened to residents of
the small town. I tend to write about my worst fears, and, as
you will read, this touched on the one that scares me the most.
I hope you enjoy the story.
