Lowering my price and new excerpts from CH. 1

Marketing my book has become increasingly difficult.  Which is why I have lowered my price to $10.99 and that includes s&h.  I just really want everyone to read what I have created.  So I am going to continually post excerpts from my novel to tempt you all!!

First I will give you a little from Chapter One: The Letter of Enlightenment

This letter which I hold in my hand could be the most important piece of mail that I have ever received. It may contain precious answers that I have longed for my entire adult life.  My lingering ache that spanned three decades could possibly be soothed within the lines of these pieces of paper.

It was a moment that would change my life and that of my family as well.  As I opened that letter that was postmarked June 1, 1935, Riggins, Idaho, my heart pounded so loudly that I could hear nothing but the sound of waves crashing over rocks.  I thought there was no one out there that knew what had become of us, let along where we were.  This was the golden opportunity I had been praying for, some indication that I could learn the secrets that my father and grandfather had locked away forever.  I may discover if there is any truth to the scattered thoughts and memories that I have been struggling with most of my life.  Is this the link to the genealogy of the generations of Blue Doves past, present and even future?  There are facts I need to discover, legacies to learn, and secrets to be revealed.  My eyes are filled with tears, my hands are shaking and my ears are ringing to the point that I think I shall faint.  I wish someone was here to steady me, to catch me should I collapse.  No, this is something that I need to do along, in absolute privacy to bask in the moment of any shred of truths that this letter may contain.

Enjoy!
