Description
A word, a single word defines a moment for Anne. She needs to find a new one when her spouse, Frank, leaves her at the age of forty-seven, coming out of the closet literally in a closet. She finds herself back in her hometown of Skvallerby, Connecticut among her high school friends which she had left in her past. An inheritance from a frenemy leaves her with the means to meddle and spy on the lives of mutual acquaintances. In an attempt to run from her reality Anne becomes engrossed in a game of fun and flirtation with her friend and fellow sufferer Connie. Their fun games turn into a deadly reality. It is no longer a game. Life, death and not even a defining word can stop the reality of manipulation.
Advance Praise
“This is a clever story with metaphysical new age scenes, current social medial insertions, and all that makes it ring contemporary. As the plot is carried along to the last and shocking ending, when the last page arrives and is shut it’s hard to stop thinking of this story. That’s the mark of really good writing.” -Paulette Mahurin, International best-selling literary fiction and historical fiction novelist.
